Hi all -
I have a lovely A. avicularia which I purchased locally, one week ago. Until this morning, he/she was in a temporary housing about 20cm x 15cm and 15cm high.
She (I hope it's a she, so here's a step of faith!) was on a base of 4cm of Mulch with a pair of twigs to assist climbing, and the tank has a water dish.
Since day one, she has clung to the side of the housing, never visibly coming to the substrate, and never visibly feeding from the medium sized crickets I was sold. She is normally in a splayed position, not cramped up, and readily walks onto my hand, but I am concerned that she shows no interest in the calcium-covered crickets.
Any need for concern?
Thanks
Paul
