[QUOTE="MassExodus, post: 125144, member: 4086"] Sling, juvie or adult? Slings and juvies will sometimes eat right away, sometimes they take a week or so to acclimate to their new home and start webbing, digging or getting comfortable in a new enclosure. Give it cover, a hide, a water dish and a quiet, warm room to live in, and it will usually settle in and start eating pretty quickly. No need to stress, just enjoy your new spider! And there's only one thing I wished for, and didn't have till later. A very small set of fine, long jawed tweezers for grabbing roach legs. It makes it much easier to feed, especially grabbing red runners out of the feeding cup without harming them. [/QUOTE]
