I got a free sling with my order of slings.
I order a Klugi, Smithi, Nhandu Chro and a Vagans and got this guy free in a container - no label or nothing. About the same size as all the others.

When I tried to open the lid to add a water dish it did this.
Is this a threat posture from a sling? Is that normal I feel like it's not.

ok thanks I thought maybe its super stressed out to make a threat posture when so small

any idea on how long it'd take to know what species it is

One of my albo slings tries to kick hairs all of the time. It’s adorable.

This little one is an expert. I don’t blame him showing off those fangs and banded legs.

Hehe the lil feisty ones will throw up threat postures sometimes. Definitely would ask the seller what the species is though so you can keep it in an appropriate enclosure or you might end up killing it..
