So I got this little guy about a month ago as a freebie when I bought my p murinus, but he's become my favorite sling because he's a real bulldozer. Last night I noticed him on his back in his burrow, so I grabbed my camera, pulled up my chair, and watched the magic



Took about 90 minutes, I think he's almost doubled in size, probably a good 3/4" legspan. Looks like he turned the exuvium into part of his burrow. I checked on him today, hasn't even fully hardened yet and he's already chomping down on a roach leg that I threw in earlier yesterday.



At one point he fell backwards, but he just sat there on his back munching away, possibly the cutest thing I've ever seen a sling do.

Eating already?:? Sounds odd to me.
None the less congrats on the molt.
