Cool What to FEED????.....(pics)

You have something BIG and hairy with a attitude what should you feed it?. I better say tarantula before some one takes this a totally different way, lol.
Just sharing some pics of my big be-atch having her monthly mouse. Enjoy.



The mouse is right around the 20g mark. Put up a bit more fight then normal.



She got this guy right in the side of the head.



Man I would not want to take a hit from this girl.

That is the one he had for sale at the show.

The only way I would stick my hands in the cage is if she had something that big in her fangs

Nice pictures, but have you had a problem with feeding her live mice yet? Live mice have a tendency to fight back, and I've heard of owners losing their T's to injuries from mice.

Sorry I do not have any T.blondis. I do have my Haplopelmea lividum (cobalt blue) together so I might have a few of them later this year if everything goes well. I am working with a few others but in no rush on any of them.

As for the mice I have fed quite a few different T's and never had a problem with the mice at all. I do watch just in case they do get a really good mouse but this was the closest I have ever seen the mouse get where it might cause a little trouble for a inexperienced T.
