So i have got a few a. versicolor spiderlings a few weeks ago. They're doing okay but I have made a few observations about them:
They seem to web very little and wander a lot in the enclosures, maybe they are still setteling in?
Some of them seem to hunt tiny crickets just fine, others have trouble locating the cricket when the cricket is on the substrate. Normally i'd toss a small cricket in and leave it but ive seen a cricket sitting there 3 days later.
I saw a sling hang a halfeaten cricket in its web, is there a chance it will finish its meal later? I dont want to stress it by destroying its tiny web to get the cricket part.
Enclosures are 10cm high with plastic plants and a piece of cork bark.
