New slings

[Reaver925]

I have two slings. Brazilian black (1 1/4”) and a Curly hair (3/4”). Both take their crickets into their boroughs to eat? Can I just feed them until they are in premolt and then rehouse with new substrate?

It sounds as though they are just doing what tarantulas do. I'd only rehouse them if they need larger containers and if they are in premoult, leave them until about a week after they've moulted.

So don’t worry about the boluses? What about mites? I saw some opinions online that if you do get mites. They are just cleaning up unless you have an infestation and others said if you have them at all to rehouse period.
