After wanting a communal set up for so long I finally got 11 P Regalis slings today. I was told that M Balfouri were easier to keep communally but they seem more aggressive than pokies and they’re rather flighty too.
I’ve set them up in a small enclosure so they are close together and they’re currently all huddled up under the piece of bark I’ve put inside. They have a water dish and slightly moist coco fibre sub.
My main question is; how would I go about feeding them, I know I need to feed them more often than usual to ensure no cannibalism takes place due to hunger but do I introduce 11 micro crickets into the enclosure all at once or do I drop them in one by one so I can see them all catch one. I’m mainly concerned about them confusing eachother for food during a feeding frenzy and eating eachother.
Any advice is highly appreciated I’d love to know what behaviour to look for if I need to separate them and if I need to make any special adjustments to the enclosure.
Thanks!
