Uneaten food in burrow

[kevinlowl]

I fed my Haplopelma sling a freshly killed mealworm that was roughly the same size as the sling. I realized I probably should've cut it up before feeding. It took the whole mealworm down into it's burrow and now has like 75% of a mealworm uneaten and ready to rot. Will the sling throw it out onto the surface? Do I have to dig up his burrow and remove it?

My T's usally takes the trash out. Wait a couple of days, if it doesnt take it out, remove it. It will make a new burrow.

Thanks, I guess I'll see what he does with it.

I'd just keep an eye on it if it starts to mold I'd try to take it out. Otherwise I'd wait for the T to try cleaning it up.

It threw the mealworm out on the surface. Pet holes are great!
