[QUOTE="dryh, post: 57777, member: 4205"] Hey guys, first time posting. I've recently acquired a P. regalis sling, although I've had a G. rosea for 5 years and a P. murinus for 2. Since I've never cared for a sling I wanted to be sure I'm doing everything alright with it. The sling is about 4cm or so (legspan). [img]http://i.imgur.com/GwrqHxW.jpg[/img] [img]http://i.imgur.com/bwWumrk.jpg[/img] Does everything look right with the enclosure? Does it have a good size? It's currently dug near the cork bark, I've read that slings from this specie do this, so I'm not worried about that. Yesterday I've placed a small live cricket there, and I can't see it today. Is it fine to assume it has been eaten? I've not seen the T eat it though. Is it possible to be buried in the substrate? Last thing I want to happen is for the cricket to bother the T while molting. I think I'll kill the crickets from now on. Just to be on the safe side. I'm keeping it in temperatures between 26-28ºC. Cheers [/QUOTE]
