Brachypelma smithi eating

Just before 1PM I gave a a mealworm, Tenebrio molitor, to my Brachypelma smithi. This was the second time it ate in my care, the previous time was last Saturday.

I probably schedule a weekly feeding for this little one.

Ladybird Beetles

In the early evening Adam and Alice collected ladybird beetles, Coccinella sp. in order to release them on the insect hotels we bought recently.

Several of the beetles ran away from the insect hotels and most likely won't stay.
