What is your Feeding Schedule? (slings)

[The Grym Reaper]

I feed mine every 3 days up until they hit 2", I started breeding mealworms so I offer the smaller (1" or less in length) ones to slings, saves me having to cut up the larger ones which I either feed to my juvies or let pupate into beetles for breeding.

I feed slings as much as they will eat, that means everyday until they start to refuse food.

 

[Chris LXXIX]

Slings only?

They (my T's) need to work if they want to eat, period. I bring my T's around with a table just like those hustlers of that "Three cards game" and if I manage to earn cash from tourists and other foolish, there's well hydrated crickets for everyone. If not, ciccia.

The Goddess 0.1 Pelinobius muticus, pure Matriarchy ruler, is in charge of that... so no T's of mine dare to rebel.

My T's aren't lucky like other T's, where 'food' arrive directly from the "sky" (aka opening the enclosure) like in the Bible

i feed slings under 2" at least 2 times a week to every day. slings put all those nutrients into growing, no need to feed it so sparingly. i feed medium size meals. if they are given a very large meal, then only feed once a week. thats how i do it with all my baby scorps as well.

I will now feed my slings more often from now on. Thank you guys for the tips and info about slings! Whoo!^~^

Usually twice per week, unless their abdomen is crazy fat then once per week. I tend to power feed my slings until they hit juvy.

I would feed twice a week except when I used to feed crickets I kept finding food wandering around the enclosure.

Yup...if you squeeze too hard when cutting it is going to be messy .
I hold it by the head and then gently cut it. Practice makes perfect

That's why you freeze them to death first!

My point was that the Ts weren't eating (and yes, the crickets were smaller than a T's abdomen).
