Funny enough, each one has a different personality. Angel and Azazel are pretty much hair kickers and like to enjoy their burrows. They will randomly be at attention when they want food. I then have Banshee who is my little bulldozer. She loves to move substrate around and be out in the open. Reminds me of a little dung beetle. Super great species!        I also have two Red knees, one is a more mature sling sporting a tad bit of color now (Cordelia). She’s a little feisty teleporter. Always out in the open and is super interesting to watch. Then I have my PITA, Salem (I think everyone might eventually have a Salem). I got her as a sub adult. When I got her, she clearly must have lost more than one limb. She was sporting a thin leg, so I knew one of them must have regrew and she has one that is still missing. She’s a PITA only because she seems to be a finicky eater and it’s been months of me waiting to see if she will get her other limb back. Still waiting. Otherwise she’s a complete sweetheart and always on on display.       I definitely wish you luck in the hobby since it is quite addictive. Especially with the species that you have gotten, they are slower growers. therefore their molting process and them to get to maturity is going to take some good years. I fell into the category of wanting a variety of slings juveniles, and some adults. That is how I am now at 50+ a short span of time. It doesn’t help that they take up limited space and I have a whole house. Lol happy husbandry to you!</blockquote>
