Message: <blockquote data-quote="Kurt Nelson" data-source="post: 12755" data-attributes="member: 394"><p>Basically, myself and bast bought some from the same guy.  I got 4, she got two.  Three of mine have molted, one of hers molted and one died.  I have a feeling my smallest one is going to die too.  It has never webbed, all the others have.  It's abdomen is tiny.  It has the same conditions as all the rest.  I opened up the container last night to feed it to plump it up.  It was trying to climb but wasn't happening.  It has always eaten but never got fat.  I still do not believe in SADS, but I do know slings die.  I left a dead crushed up cricket in there for it, but it has not taken to it yet.  So I'm not keeping my hopes up!  But this could be possible signs of an impending death in avic slings for any of you out there that are curious.</p></blockquote><p></p>
