Hey everyone,
I’ve been trying to find straight forward care info on here by searching threads and can’t find anything solid or Just stuff unrelated.
I either find stuff telling the OP not to get it or out dated stuff about misting for humidity.
I am not looking to have the discussion about of why not to get it for all the commonly stated reasons. just want to learn about sling care that’s all because I have read that they are fragile as slings, but no one seems to state what makes them fragile.
I Just want to inform myself if I do even decide to get one down the road! Not saying I am going to.
Here’s what I would like to know that I can’t find clear information on.
1.Do they need more or less room as slings?
2.Do they exhibit any burrowing tendencies as slings, or are they semi arboreal or are they strictly arboreal as slings?
3.Should they be kept on substrate with any moisture, or bone dry?
4. How slow is slow growth for this species? I find the slow growth statement ambiguous and subjective when I see that.
5. What makes them “fragile”?
6. Do they need any specific special care that other arboreal slings do not.?
7. Are they only sexually dimorphic once adults or do they show any signs earlier?
And if anyone has any Info not stated in my questions please feee free to educate me on the husbandry needed to keep this species as slings and into juvenile stages.. Once again not interested in why people wouldn’t get them (ei. Speed, experience level, venom), just want husbandry please!!!
