Just did a search on here for a thread about H.incei Communal set up. There were only a hand full and most of them are over 2 years old. I was wondering if any one who was trying it from the old posts had managed to make it work, or if any one is trying a new colony right now?
I recently got 6 slings (2nd instar) and they have been living well together, but this morning one was missing and there was just a few legs scattered around. Is this some thing that regularly happens and how can I try to prevent such a thing happing again?
Would giving them more space be an idea? At the moment they are in a deli tub with a 10 cm diameter.
Any other advice or observations on community H. incei would be appreciated.
P.S. I will just add that my slings have not ate for a few days and refuse food so I am presuming they are in premoult so I can not understand why they ate their brother.
