My pastel didn't eat today either. She has the blue eyes getting ready to shed though. But, this didn't use to stop her before. She struck at the rat (the rat was getting too close, so I think it was just a warning shot) but didn't hurt it. My kids said, poor Curly... then on the next breath shouted Yipppeee, the rat is saved! Sigh. Feeding day is tough.
One thing I really really love about our spider. He eats anything, anytime, without delay!
