Perhaps they'll feel the vibrations and emerge, as the centipedes do, or perhaps they are moulting. I have read posts saying that slings may moult when first aquired. Being that they are sealed up I suppose a small cricket won't do any harm, I always add food for crickets when I feed my scorpions so that they are not hungry enough to annoy them if not eaten immediately, I'll do the same with the tarantulas.</p></blockquote><p></p>
