I picked up two slings at an expo last weekend and one of them is a Brazilian Red and White. It happened to molt on the drive home and was hiding out in its tiny tube until this morning, where I checked on it just now and found it running around the container looking for more mealworm bits <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" />Which leads me to a few questions! How often should I feed it? The breeder recommend cutting two mini mealworms in half for it once a week but idk its abdomen seems a little small for that at once, maybe I should break it up into one twice a week?Also what exactly is the humidity requirement of this little guy? So far I have it on dry soil that I spritz lightly each morning and after work, and it seems happy but I want to be sure.Here is the little thing <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />[ATTACH=full]37652[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]37653[/ATTACH]</blockquote>
