Welcome to the addiction! Lol Good luck and most of all remember, SAFETY, and I mean safety for the tarantulas, first! I have been keeping tarantulas for a very long time now, it's the most rewarding way of life I have come to know. There's absolutely nothing in this world like having...

I'm interested in seeing the final product! Pretty interesting idea.

Try killing the cricket, cutting it in half and putting half of it in front of the sling, a lot of the times when their babies like that they will scavenge. Just an idea. Good luck and take care.

What species?
