Okay I love the spiders and the one I have I simply adore! But at feeding time he's a bit slow.. LOL He has an appetite that can't be beat, and he hits hard and fast without a problem but it takes him 20 minutes *i'm not exagerating here* to figure out how to eat it. If he is lucky enough to catch the head end he will just swallow it down after he has "killed" it.. but the last one was still alive, but barely. (ps.. is that bad for him) The last time I grabbed the rat behind the head and put it in his face. He started to swallow right away. Does anyone else find that yours does this too? I have not noticed a "spider wobble" to speak of when i watch him or hold him, could it be that when he gets excited the wobble comes out and shows then? I got him for my breeding projects, but not sure now if I should use him. I'm waiting for spider female babies to come out of the egg right now, and since I'm not breeding spider to spider I could just keep him for a pet if need be. personality wise he is my favorite.. but not too shabby in the looks department either..

What do you all think..
I also wonder if I could give prekilled since he took it off the tongs for me after he killed it.. hmm..

Sorry for the long post.. here's a pic of him..
