Unfortunately, they’re not really as blue as they look in pictures and you need a light to get that sheen you see online. So, from your pictures it looks like you have that little guy in a mansion. All slings benefit from smaller enclosures as it helps them feel more secure and helps them find their prey easier. Please correct me if I’m wrong, but that’s just what it looks like. Next, I’ve noticed they like their substrate a little more on the wetter side than your average Brachypelma or Aphonopelma. Keep them more like a Nhandu. Not sopping wet, but damp. Provide a hide and viola, you’ll have a happy spider!</p></blockquote><p></p>
