hi i just got three spiderlings. one Chilean rose, one Mexican red knee and one Mexican red leg . the Chilean rose is about 1.5 cm big and is very active and eaten its prey. the Mexican red knee is about 3 cm and is also active and has eaten his prey but the Mexican red leg is 1 cm big and was active at night but now is active all the time
but it wont eat. i have tried cutting the cricket into small pieces and i have misted the enclosure so the humidity is just right but he will not eat. can someone please give me a answer because i am afraid that he will starve.

fisher,

if the abdomen is larger than the carapace i wouldnt start worrying just yet. they like to fast and worry their owners. :)
