Thought that I would share, they seemed to enjoy them although they were a little unsure of what to do with them at first. They licked em for a while then finally decided to bite and swallow. My female still eats very well, does this mean any thing? I'm not complaining just thought they lighten up with thier food consumption when gravid. Might be wrong, let me know.

her appetite will DECREASE the last few days, but up until then my Hopi kept eating, and after she laid the last egg she came out and ate 5 - 6 crickets that night, which surprised me because everyone says they look so awful and skinney after they lay, and usually dont eat right away ! I'm glad, she ate ! So you will notice her going into the nesting area more, last few days also ! Just stay tuned into her behavior, You'll know ! :0) Eve
