hi, i have just got a 3 year old red knee and she is lovely, but all she does is eat, the day i got her she had 5 small locusts, and again 5days later she has just eaten 2 big locusts. is this normal?
thanks

This isn't normal for a Red Knee (Brachypelma smithi), they are a slow growing species and therefore can go long periods without eating. They will only eat if they are hungry though, so I wouldn't worry
