[QUOTE="HungryGhost, post: 27814, member: 2661"] You've started off with a great species. They are hardy and generally docile. I would only offer one pinhead at a time and remove it after 24 hours if it isn't eaten. Then try again in a day or two. Your sling looks well fed. Leaving a cricket in with a sling could be dangerous if the sling tries to molt, crickets will bite/eat tarantulas when they are defenseless during and just following a molt. Hydei fruit flies might be worth a try as a food source for such a small T too. I also would not provide fruit for the crickets in the T's enclosure, it can cause mold growth. Below is a picture of my 4.5" female so you can see what you have to look forward to. Enjoy! [ATTACH=full]5821[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
