[QUOTE="Flyingmonkey, post: 174679, member: 32816"] Thank you so much for the thoughtful and helpful suggestions and insight! Today I checked up on her (but have since stopped disturbing her/opening her enclosure unnecessarily) and saw that she has pooped in her water dish and drank a lot cause only a bit of water left. So yay it seems that she really like that spot cause i see her sitting there again haha. Btw, I will be feeding her tomorrow as the person who sold her said that he already fed her the day before I have gotten her (last week), so tomorrow will be this week’s feeding. I‘m thinking of giving her a superworm- do I just place it in front of her until she takes it? I’ve seen videos on YouTube and most of the Ts would immediately pounce, although some don’t do it on camera, and the person would just leave it for the Ts to eat it later. Would it be safe for me to leave the superworm in the enclosure if she doesn’t respond to it immediately? For my slings I just cut up the mealworms as they are still small, so i’m kinda nervous about feeding an adult for the first time. Fyi where i’m from it’s quite limited, there are only crickets, mealworms and superworms. I haven’t seen any places that sell dubia roaches and other options. [/QUOTE]
