So I fed my tarantula a king worm and she's taking a long time to eat it. She put the worm in her mouth and ate it but part of it is still hanging out of her mouth. I'm not sure if that's typical or not, any advice?

Some Ts just digest their prey quickly than others. Those with potent venom usually eats faster than most commonly docile species. I do have a big girl, a 6-inch Nhandu coloratovillosus that takes forever to finish a superworm
