Big P irminia not eating. was created by Hardie van Tonder
Hi there. I recently aquired a 13cm female P irminia from Riaan in Pta. I've had her for about a month now and refuses adult crickets.
She apparenlty mated 6 weeks ago and I would suspect that she would be hungry regardless of being pregnant or not. All she took was a moth I caught, but I don't like doing that because of pesticides. Maybe I must breed my own moths... I haven't tried roaches though.

Any pointers would be appreciated. She's not superthin but I wish she would eat. Getting a bit worried

Haha thanks for the optimism Curt. Well I made her a tunnel to web in but she doesn't web at all. Also bit concerning. Displays herself very nicely though:)

Try giving her a roach,sometimes it's good to change up there diet,but she really also could be in premolt or some other possibilities.
