Got a question about Lasiodora parahybana slings. I got one 1.5cm, and it's atm been burrowed into the coco for 2-3 weeks. I have tried feeding semiliving/twitching tiny crickets, hoping it feeds in the night, but I'm unsure. What do you do with small burrowing spiders?

Dont give them the space to burrow excessively.

Is the burrow entrance sealed off or open?
Have water available.
Leave a prekilled prey item near the burrow entrance to see if it gets eaten. Are the crickets you put in disappearing? It isn't safe to have live prey in with a T.
Ts will burrow for awhile and can fast for awhile.

This. I keep all my small slings in 2 oz condiment containers with some sub and a fake leaf as a hide. Instead of burrowing, they choose to use the leaf as a hide and I'm able to keep an eye on them easily. This way it's easier to feed and monitor them.Dont give them the space to burrow excessively.
