Hi!
I’m a new GBB mom. I need some advice on an enclosure. My GBB is a sling. Maybe, an inch? More like .75. Pic is below.
As you’d expect, he is fast. It happens out of no where. One minute you think he is just chillin and then BAM he is running up the side and out into the counter. Feeding is a bit of an interesting experience. He’s run out of his current container every time and I’m left rushing around trying to get him back in. I freak because he’s so little and I don’t want him to get hurt.
I’ve been handing him pinheads with tongs. He takes the pinhead right from the tongs and goes about his business. Yes, he runs fast with a pinhead in his mouth too. Geez. Maybe I shouldn’t “hand feed,” but just let him hunt?
Also, the container I currently have him in has him hanging out right at the seal. Obviously not ideal for him or I.
What’s the best enclosure for a GBB sling? How do you typically feed a GBB?
I’m so used to Birdeaters that this little thing is just new territory for me.
