Hi All
I have a GBB sling that ive had for a good 4 months it used to be a good eater but went off its food about 3 months ago as its to small for a water bowl I dampen the substrate and put a few droplets of water onto its webbing
I dont believe its molted since ive had it, and cant be sure if it looks bigger or not have left it well alone so not to disturb it and moisten sustrate every 3-4 weekshave found no evidence of a moult (perhaps it ate it?) and have put in a few crickets here and there but most seem to be left to die although every once in a while i find a smalll boluse (excuse the spelling)
But it doesnt seem to act like it did when i first got it was a very hungry eater, its kept at the same temperature of my other slings and my slower growing grammies and brachys have each molted a good 3-4 times this being considered a fast growing species im a little concerned still has sling colours etc and about 2cm legs span maybe a little bigger other than that it seems to be quite happy and still moves about here and there as when i check on it, it has sometimes switched positions
any advice or anyone that has experienced the same would be greatly received, im sure im worrying for nothing but for a so called fast grower its being outgrown by most of my so called slow growers lol
regards
Simon
