Stretching out Fangs?

[Sbirtell1]

Hey all!!

I noticed that my female Grammostola pulchra was stretching her fangs out gently on a fake leaf from a tree she hides in or under. It was a gentle gliding movement.

I’ve seen her groom herself before, this behavior was different. I did just release a couple of crickets in her enclosure. They were roaming around. Is this hunting behavior? Or normal behavior I have nothing to worry about?

I tried googling it, but most of the threads I found were about grooming and post-molt behavior. Anyways, I was just curious. I’m not overly worried since she seems to be acting like her usual fabulous self. Just curious.

Thanks in advance… -Sarah

My assumption would be that she's trying to move the leaf because my T has done a similar thing when he tries to move stuff. I could be wrong though!

No, that does make sense as well! As long as it’s normal behavior. Thanks for your response!
