So far I love them, Spock (B.albo sling) has molted twice, escaped once, and just about scared me to death flying out of the enclosure when I open it. I feed him/her whenever hungry which seems to be every 2 days, 1 meal worm. Seems to be growing very fast. I had to add a heating cable as it goes a little below 60F at night now.
I noticed after his/her escape it doesn't burrow, or go inside its hide anymore?

Rose (G.Porteri) has molted once, and eats 4-5 meal worms a week, and is very active. She will attack everything.

*Any truth to 2 mealworm equals, 1 cricket? And feeding approx. 3 crickets per week? I've been feeding about 4-5 mealworms per week.

Not sure about the mealworm equation, but the Ts look very healthy. I notice with my porter, big or small, they're usually out, but will use their hide if if too much activity in housekeeping of their enclosures.
