New G. Pulchripes owner

[chaseburke]

So my pulchripes(gizmo) is a ling about 3/4 - 1 inch. I have a feeling that its enclosure is to big. I got giz around a week ago and its eaten once since then. Any ideas/ general suggestions?

Not without more information. Almost sounds like one of those impossible to solve story problems........3/4 inch sling, divided by the difference in length of time owned and feedings since.

In all seriousness, congrats on the sling. G. pulchripes is an amazing species!!!! What are you using to house your little guy in?? Dimensions would help too.

Yeah, as I lack a tape measure its hard to give the exact dimensions of its enclosure, however, I put it in a small circular ziplock container (w/ appropriate air holes). I put the cricket in with it and when I came back it was feeding I'll wait until it gets bigger and is able to hunt..more effectively until placed in a larger enclosure.
