Message: <blockquote data-quote="Fuzzball79" data-source="post: 35934" data-attributes="member: 3190">Out of my 6 Ts 3 are slings. My GBB and T. Gigas are great because they're good eaters (luckily I can get ahold of 2nd instar crickets here and they take down reasonably big prey, neither touch pre-killed for some reason) and always visible. Neither of them have molted yet, but I think the GBB is getting there as it's not eating at the moment and webs a lot (more).My B. Boehmei is quite frustrating. I can count on both of my hands the occasions it has actually been out and about (maybe I'm exaggerating a bit, but it seems that way, lol), other than that it's been through 2 veeeery long premolt phases (currently still in its second phase) - about a month or more - where it's just hiding and fasting. I don't think I'd get another Brachy sling. I don't want to be on my deathbed when they've finally reached adult stage, lol.</blockquote>
