As i mentioned before i just got an A.Aust. and he is still little probably in 2nd instar.
When i first set him up, i dropped when cricket, right away, the cricket went near him, and he stabbed the cricket several times, with stinger, very interesting to watch.
Several days later, i dropped another one down, and he completly ignored it, it would walk on top of him, and he did not care at all, is that normal, what aggression is that??? Maybe not hungry?? Is that normal behavoir?
I know the danger associated with the venom, but for <edit> and giggles, i even was taping the top of his mets. near his stinger with finger, and rubbing it, he did not mind.
Should I be concerned, then i observed him at night, which a cricket got near and he scared it off. He moves around though.
Any thoughts??
