    The weird thing is shes in a rack that is dark 24\7(racks in a walk in closet) she has a gone threw hide after hide,a few different substrates an i literlly dont handle her unless im cleaning her tub out which when she wasnt eating was only once a week. so you know she was a pain in the but. haha

    at first i didnt like them they reminded me of huge mites but they have since grown on me. I like the black spots on the pieds but not the bananas.

    thank you the male is another kind of problem haha he eats 1-2 rats a week an is the second slowest grower. I thought for sure hed be breeding this year but nope had to take a gamble with a het pied\het albino male x my 100 percent het pied female. I almost gave up on the dream of producing my own pieds haha

    My het. Pied female is such a picky brat. Will only eat live or fresh killed. SOMETIMES.

    Our het. Albino female would do the strike, "kill", and abort mission thing too. ALL THE FREAKING TIME. No idea why she stopped doing it, she got over her silly feeding habit and she's a monster now, going to drop eggs this season actually. I try not to let picky feeders stress me out; they'll change their minds eventually.

    these bps will deff keep you on your toes. I hope she was just being a brat an will take another meal in a week. but only time will tell haha

    That's weird. I keep my Pied in a rack in the closet as well and she still doesn't eat unless I cover her tub. I literally have to wrap it all around and leave the room.

    I swear they do this just to make us mad. :P
