Current Problem - My veiled has only eaten 2 medium sized crickets for the past week since I've gotten it. I tried putting a container with crickets at the bottom of the plant but it doesn't seem interested. Its used to hand feeding by its previous owner but it will slant to one side and hide behind the jungle vine everytime it sees me and refuses to eat. I use a chopsticks to hold the cricket and let it shoot at it. It has poor aiming and often misses and even when it hits the target, the tongue isn't sticky enough to stick the cricket. Today is the first time i saw it went down to the bottom of the plant so i try putting the container there again but shes just scared and climbed up the branch and stayed there.
Could it be pregnant? The previous owner told me she hasn't laid eggs yet.
