Observe-O-Hatchery: Wolf spider eating a cricket

My pet Wolf spider

My Wolf spider is so cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I made a habitat for her, and she spun a web on the ground. She was waiting for a tasty cricket to get caught in the web.

At the next feeding, I gave her a cricket. Look how quickly she was striking! Try not to blink or you will miss the best moment!

    It’s good that this monster didn’t bite… 8-]

    Wow that was cool to see up close, it happened so fast! How often does your wolf spider need to eat? What does it eat besides crickets?

    Ok, I have changed my mind. I do not want to be a cricket! 🙂
    That was neat. I also had the question how often does the spider need to eat? A whole cricket?! Thanks for sharing!
