Hello,
My first slings arrived 2 weeks ago, I owned some adults 20 years ago and now I retaked the hobbie. One of the two is a is a 4/5" b.hamorii, after the rehousing I tried to feed her with a small cricket but she run away from it, I made a big mistake and let her alone with the cricket 20 minutes and when looked her again one leg was missing, I killed the bug that was completely eaten in the morning, after that the spider eated some crickets during this time (all dead), but since last tuesday she refuses the meal, running away from the crickets and ignoring their corpses... I'm a little worry about it, I don't know if is something that bothers the spider like much moist in the substrate or crickets bigger than the spider like, or if she is in premolt, I've never had sling before, so I don't know the external sympthoms that indicate this, she looks pretty equal, I don't see his abdomen darker, she moves (when she does) quickly... I attach a picture of the spider so you can see something I don't see
The other sling is a p.murinus, I'm completely impressed with the appetite of this specimen this eat everithing that moves in his enclosure, an authentic beast.
