Well, it's been 7 weeks since I received my Chilobrachys andersonii & Brachypelma smithi slings. They have all (19) about doubled in size since then. Still tiny, about ½"-¾" in size. I'm using B. lateralis roach nymphs about ¼"+ for feeding. It's funny how the C. andersonii dig and web up all the way to the top of those deli cups and the B. smithi may dig or just sit on top. So different in character. I also found out recently that the B. smithi's could be Brachypelma boehmei. Works for me.

Cool vid. I just got a .25 inch B. Albopilosum sling and am kinda nervous as I've never had anything near this small. Well, other than the .5 inch H. Maculata and .75 inch H. Lividum that I also just got!

Im kinda unsure about how often to feed them pinhead crickets, Im thinking one every other day? Could anybody help me out?
