[QUOTE="m0lsx, post: 161870, member: 29323"] Personally I have no idea if some of my slings eat or not. Being small most could have a massive feed on a mealworm & I would never know. They get a beheaded mealworm every 3rd day. That is, I put a mealworm in, leave it 24 hours, remove it & the replace with a fresh mealworm 24 hours later. The way I look at it, my slings cost me absolutely no more to feed this way, as by buying mealworms, I get more than I will use, so why not do it? Feeding the above way I also take the lid off each sling everyday, thus refreshing the air for them & I get to keep an eye on any that are not webbed up or burrowed. So not having 100's of T's, all this cost me is a few minutes each day. [/QUOTE]
