[QUOTE="MrFireLeg, post: 192581, member: 36432"] hi all, I got a sling of these as a freebie and hadn’t done any research obviously, specific care information is difficult to come by so the following is my best guess basic care plan. I’d appreciate any feed back and obviously I expect some incorrect assumptions, so corrections are really welcome. psalmopoeus reduncus (Costa Rican orange mouth) Habitat Adults 200mmx200mmx300mm minimum Juvies 150mmx150mmx250mm minimum Spiderlings a deli cup 4 inch sub for adults/Juvies and 1-2 inch for slings. Hide for juvie +, twig for sling. Water dish Anchor points (flowers, bark, sticks or structures) Temps and humidity Temps 23c-27c. Wet the sub once a week at the corners enough to dry in a week and repeat and use fewer top of enclosure vents to retain some humidity. Feeding Slings - Feed twice a week using cut up meal worm or cricket. Juvies 4-5 crickets every 7 - 10 days Adults 3 crickets a week depending on abdomen. [/QUOTE]
