I am curious if there is any documentation of slings dispersing away from the mother in the wild. Like how far do they venture before they make there own burrows, do they move in particular directions ( Down hill or up hill). I found a sling burrow in my yard about a week ago here in Arizona. So I dug the little bugger up and added it to my collection. But now I am finding more because they are getting more active as it warms up! I just looked around the yard and found at least two possibly three tarantula burrows. They are even smaller than the first I found. But they are all in one area of the yard. Which leads me to believe that the mother tarantula must be close by, but where? I would love to be able to observe all these guys during the course of the year. I also wonder if the larger tarantulas are slower to wake up because they are buried deeper?
