Can anyone help me with tips feeding the versi sling? It's about 1/8th inch.

Is it as simple as crushing a crickets head and dropping it in? I gave him one like that several hours ago and it's untouched.

Holy crap A. versis are fast.... I've never handled a T before and I just had my first experience.... by accident. Guess it's about time, I've owned short of 20 Ts in the past 7 years. I was checking to see it it ate and it flew out of the vial and up my arm. I was freaked out at first but it wasn't so bad. Actually might try it again lol.

Simpler.
When you're feeding your bigger spiders, pinch off a back leg, and drop it in there. No need to waste a whole cricket! You can even just hand it to them and they'll take it!

Get used to handling your versi sling, haha they run out of their vials every chance they get. It's like they have energy to burn, and so they go for a run. But yea cricket legs are good stuff.
