Sling OBT in the tube

Hi !
My OBT arrived yesterday in the tube as you can see from the photo but I do not know how to made her to move out from 'the arrived' tube enclosure.

Can anyone assist ?

I know that she is still alive as I saw her one time at the edge of the opening but she moved back to the end of the tube when I try to look close to her.

I also tried to lure her with small mealworm but didn't work.

My intention to get her out from the tube is to evaluate her condition as well make her to get used with the new provided enclosure.

Appreciate your assistance to the worriness :)


Regards,

Sholihin Aziz

Hello friend,
It should be wrapped in some soft and moist paper inside the tube.
Take a thin tweezers and grab the edge of the paper then slowing and gently pull it out, the T should come out with it. Next gently unwrap it.
P.S: your enclosure is 20 times too big for the size of your little sling.
I hope this helps, cheers.

That looks like old school Dial roll-on antiperspirant with brown shag glued to it :D

Where can I get those for White Elephant gifts? Please post link!
Sold out.... :(
