First up the Avic Sling (feeding on 1mm Lobster Roach babies every 3 days)
Then came the OBT (feeding on lobster roach adults once a week)
The Chilean was next (eating adult lobster roaches once a week). I can't believe I've got this one eating again, tiny tub did the trick, looks awful but needs must.
Last was the mighty hair flicking, mouse munching monster that is my Salmon Pink.
And you don't get this close to this T without food distractions.
Next week will be cleaning them out time (specially the Chilean, in the past 2 days she has made such a mess).

How big is Boris now?
The Chile Roses seem to have a bit of a reputation for non-feeding. Well one of mine hasn't heard of what it means not to eat. But the bigger of the two seldom needs to be asked twice if it wants fed.
I'm trying to get a Dubia colony on the go and do away with the hyper-scatty crickets. The mealworm wriggly mass is coming along. Not bad for starting of with just a standard tub.
Of course it will mean that I'll need a couple more eating machines to control the colonies. |

Oh yeah I've gone for Dubia roaches, which are a good medium size, lobster roaches which cater for the tiny ones and then hissers are the biggest and a nightmare to even feed let alone breed..
OBT is about 5 inch leg span. Totally the opposite of a OBT though, a right timid thing.
The tiddlers aren't going to be massive but about the 5 inch mark. Though they jump so make them far more fun than a standard issue T.

Pretty much a year without food. I hate to say it but I think it was my fault she stopped eating I tried to give her a bigger tub but she stopped eating, I moved her back to the original and still wouldn't eat, only since moving into a tub not much bigger than her leg span has she started to eat again. Learnt a lesson though and these things live forever so have plenty of years to make it up to her. |

wow i never would have thought they would live that long without food!
Can they be handled once eaten, or have to be left like a snake? |

| They can be handled any time really, well unless they are being defensive, aggressive, skittish, flighty or recently moulted. Most of the times I've handled them has been by mistake, they run and you've got to catch them. It's great fun, specially when an OBT has just tried to run up the tub and you've used your hand to stop it and now it's stopped running and it's stood in the middle of your palm. |

A year without, phew I bet she had you worried. Just shows, you think you're doing your best for animals sometimes and its the opposite.
I had the same happen with the frog, moved her to a larger enclosure and she stopped feeding and looked really ill (thought I was going to lose her). Popped her back in the small tub again and BAM, back to normal!! |
