She's an inch and I just got her on 7/9/14...
I was expecting a more mature T so if any of you have more advice
On rearing a baby Mex Fireleg.
I successfully feed her today and I'm housing her in a small, well ventilated container but I'm terrified I'll do something wrong.

Welcome aboard!
You've got this! Just have a little faith and do some research here on our forums - you'll be all set.
Can you share a photo of her and her enclosure?

Welcome aboard! Raising a T from a sling to adult is definitely the way to go. Lots of help her if you need it.

You'll need to use damp substrate until he's about 2 inches long. Change it every once in a while as the moisture will encourage mold. Feed him a couple crickets a week, or more if you wish. Raising a baby T is really very easy. As babies they molt quite a bit more often than older Ts, so he should get bigger in no time. Good luck, feel free to ask any questions you might have…great place to go to for info.
