Hello, here are some pics of our new sling, a martinique pink toe. we have called 'her' Aurora : as in aurora borealis, in anticipation of 'her' adult colours.

they had both cobalt & green bottle blue slings , both of which we really want but they were on hold for the staff but they took our number for the guy who deals with the tarantulas, as today was his day off & are going to get him to ring us tomorrow, very excited at the prospect of either or both :D

just wanted to ask, you might have noticed a piece of sponge in the pot. i am not a fan of sponge, just the risk of mold puts me off. we usually just mist till old enough for a bottle top of water in tub but we didn,t want to disturb the sling too much yet, what are your thoughts on using on sponge??

Get the spounge out asap. All spounges do is breed bacteria. A sling can drink just fine from a nice spray.

Every time I see pics like these I really wish Ts like Versicolor, GBB, and Pamphobeteus sp, would keep their sling color to adult hood. :)

I love A. versicolors!!!!!! If I was in the market for another T, I'd seriously consider one. What are their personalities like? Beautiful photos, btw. :D
