[QUOTE="Jeef, post: 223281, member: 36825"] Everyone else pretty much has it covered! Just to reinforce/reiterate- I have a "do your best" policy on removing uneaten prey. I don't tong feed my tarantulas, but I do use tongs to get things out of their enclosures. Crickets are a pain. If crickets go into a hide after 24 hours, I don't go digging. Catching them with tongs is a skill that takes some practice. I crush the heads on 100% of the dubia roaches I use. If I don't, they play dead, then burrow. My Brachys all go on hunger strike. It really isn't a big deal. I've got a couple of Aphonopelmas that I am convinced live on air. The really funny part is one was a little chow hound until she molted. This baffles me. Did they say why not? [/QUOTE]
