[QUOTE="MassExodus, post: 71780, member: 4086"] I'd give the sling three, four days before offering it prey. And make sure it has a fresh cap of water, molting dehydrates them. If you can get to the molt without touching her, grab it anytime, just don't disturb the sling. How often they molt depends on many factors, but small slings typically molt very often. How much you feed it, what sex it is, what species it is, and what temp you're keeping it at will all determine how often it molts. A one inch increase would be a huge molt for a large spider, your sling will not double in size :p Hope this helps, and congrats on your first molt. [/QUOTE]
