Hello, I just got my first T. Have been following and doing research for a while. It's a versicolor sling. Picked it up from the san Diego reptile show on Saturday.
Went in intending on getting either a hamarii or a gbb and after checking all the booths and saw the versicolor I knew that was the one I was going to get. Somewhere I heard that they were hard to find so I wasnt sure they were an option, but here we are. Of course hoping for a female.
Also it seems like there's a random beetle in my bedding i saw the other day, and when i chased it with the tweezers it disappeared under the little rockhide I made and havent seen it since. Dont know if it was in the bedding in the cup it was sold in or in the cocofiber I already had.
Ive made some ammends to its habitat since I got it like by adding the dish to the top level and a few more plant pieces. Not even sure if the hide is necessary cus it likes this one spot halfway up the branch in the leaves. Starting the webbing there. It ate a small cricket yesterday (Sunday).
Not sure how often to feed it.
Excited to start this journey of keeping, as there were so many more species I was interested in, including true spiders.
