new babies are fast

[Hairyspider]

Well, the vejovis, spin babbies have all left mom, been bout 2 weeks since birth. they have molted and look like minie scorps. I put a couple of pre killed small crickests in so they can scavenge. I have also taken mom out

My question is this. What is the best way to get them seperated? cuz these buggars are super fast, I tried to use a spoon, but they just climbed up the handle, and they are hard to get off.
Any suggestions?

Thanks

William

manuever each of them into a small container?
if you use a spoon, try going under the dirt so they think or feel as if theyre still on solid ground?
what i did with roaches was that id take a toilet paper roll, squish it to make it a tight fit inside and chase them into this, they then feel safe in it and then i would shake them out into a T tank. maybe something like that can work?

and the grand total is......

I got them all seperated now, I used a new spoon, had less divits in it. I tried the rolled up toilet paper tube, the lil buggars just went around and under it.

And the grand total is 42, wow

I'm going to caLL the East bay Vivarium, and see if they would do a trade for another T

Later
