Hello,
I one of my Tarantulas is acting a bit strange i think. My aphonopelma chalcodes hasnt eaten for a while now. Once every several days I try to feed her. The weird thing is, when I drop a superworm she does react to it. When it starts to dig she will dig him out but once she does that she wont actually bite and eat the prey item.. like she is scared to actually bite it.
I know tarantulas can go quite a while without food but the fact that she tries to eat but fails concers me a bit.
Anyone knows what I should do or has experience with this kind of behaviour?
