So I have an A. Purpurea sling that of couse needs feeding. I don't have a good local source for pinhead crickets and can't justify ordering a grip of them for the one sling. I picked up a jar container of cultured flightless fruit flies. So far he seems to like eating them. He doesn't go looking for them but as soon as one gets near him he takes right away.
My question is does anyone have a good method of dispensing them? Its pretty sad that I open the lid and as a few of them "escape" I catch them by hand the best I can and drop them in with the sling. Its a matter of coordination and timing and a few always wander loose of course. Luckily they just drop into my aquarium where the fish eat them but there has got to be a better way of getting a few of them into the sling container.
Or does anyone have any better luck with any other feeder options?
