Well, I just picked up my new Grammostola pulchripes sling from the post office! Sooooo tiny and cute!!! I am planning on feeding small dubia roaches (unless told otherwise) and hopefully she/he will start eating soon.

Wow tiny!:biggrin:
I also had a B smithi at about the size of corn kernel. Too tiny that I almost lost it.
It's now at least half an inch and in premolt! :love:

Goodluck and enjoy your super cute sling!

Awesome T. I also got one about 2 weeks ago. Only about an inch. Wish he would grow faster!

Great first choice! Mine is just a baby but just starting to show its beautiful colors, make owning them that much better.

While at the latest reptile show....I came across this cutie. I already have 2 other g. pulchripes but they are slings and I am a bit impatient at times. :)
These are some of my favorites so I have to bring her home.

I also brought home a little Aphonopelma sp. (Flagstaff) sling but haven't gotten a good photo yet....very fast.

How big was she when this was posted? Just curious because I have a couple that might be this size and wanted to be better at caring for them, I am especially interested in the water dish.

For a sling such size (more or less) you can use as water dish a little (but normal is ok either) water cup :-s
