how often should i feed slings?

[risolenak]

hi! i’m new to the hobby and have only had my sling (b. boehmeii, almost a year old) for a few months. i have always tried to feed it once every 5 days but it has rejected them most of the time ;( i have heard about how feeding it less may be better, any tips on how often should i feed it? tia!

Could be in pre-molt, post some pics!

it has just molted about 20 days ago it ate 10 days post-molt but have not eaten again, here is its pic from 3 days ago (and thank you for replying!)

Looks healthy, I don't think it's a concern at the moment. Keep trying once per week! Even if it's pre-killed prey.

Brachy's are slow eaters/growers too so just keep that in mind.
