Yep it's tricky to weed out the bad info. So far so good, the little guy walked back home. As he's walking around on its own I didn't flip him over or anything, just letting him do his own thing. On this note, how common is it for slings or adults to take over 12 hours to molt? Is it known of...

Thanks, that's a lot of info. Is confusing that there is so much contradiction in opinions on this case. Read five different articles and itll tell you five different things. The sling has started walking around, so I'm sure it'll be fine. It'll go back in its enclosure then!

Hi all, after a week or so of premolt my little GBB sling was on it's back yesterday night. This morning I discovered it fell off it's hammock, wedged between some decoration and the side of the enclosure. Worried that it's been so long and it didn't manage to moult yet, I was thinking humidity...

Quick update: the little dude molted just a few days after starting this thread. At the moment he's borrowed himself in his hide.

I've had this little guy for about three months. He's even moulted once, so can't be doing too bad. Typical Grammostola he's hardly grown during his moult. So far he didn't want any live food, only pre-killed. However I bet he's been spending most of the time in premoult.

Might give pill Blister packs a go then. Anything bigger than that will take up about a quarter of that enclosure, as it's under 4 cm in width. I'll report back in a few weeks (if I remember!)

Thanks, good to know it's nothing major. I'll let it dry out again and see how he does with a little less moisture just on one side.

Hi all, My tiny G Pulchripes sling seems to be sitting in stress pose quite often (if not most of the time). I've attached some images of the enclosure/ventilation. I know little guy is probably in premolt, considering the big black butt / refusing food / he's due. Also, the substrate is on the...

That's great! Thanks all

Not much experience with sexing, but I believe this is Female? Meaning Terry is a Theresa, not a Terrence? Cheers!

I use bean weevils, and they work great. I have slings of 7mm dls happily eating them. The advantage for me is that you can culture them without much effort. All you need to do is add some individuals and some beans from an existing colony to a vented pot with dried black eyed beans, and a few...

I would like to join please! Thanks

Lovely! Would you mind posting a few more pictures from different angles? I really like how you raised the substrate closer to the side of the enclosure.

This all looks pretty awesome. Looking forward to see how you put in the airing mesh and the rails for the front glass.

Tiny molt, but I'm thinking male?

That sounds great, I honestly struggle seeing the Tin differences between male and female. Looking forward to a molt to confirm

My guess is male but not much experience. Help appreciated!

Thanks!

@Jaxe brilliant work, it looks very professional. You should try selling them.

Very nice. Can you tell me where you got this enclosure? I'm trying to get hold of these nice ones but not much on offer in the UK.
