AFS gave birth on the 26th. Today all of the slings have made it off her back, but are just chilling as a mass under her. I read one post that stated she would shred prey up and they'd group feed, then others said to split up the group near the end of week 2. I have small enclosures set up for the slings, but only have small crickets (maybe 2x size of pinhead) on hand -- so wasn't sure of I should split them up yet. I'm guessing once they are on ground level they should be hungry yeah?
Time to separate slings?

Once they leave mom, I seperate them into their own bin. I leave them together as a group (depending how many...into two groups if a huge litter) and raise them together. They are insatiable beasts for the first several instars and grow rapidly.
