Do I need to mist my Curly Hair vials?

They're little still.
Do they get enough moisture from mealworms?

I would try other feeders, (like baby crickets) mealworms are fatty.

Also i try to keep slings 50/50 for a wet and dry side, so if you have a sprayer i would hold it agaist the inside wall of the vial and spray.

dont forget to enjoy

I hate crickets so much hahaha
hm maybe ill go tomorrow or something to get some pinheads.
i have a sprayer, ill try doing that.

keeping the slings in is gunna be a joke hahah

If you don't like crickets, try getting yourself a small roach colony. Roaches are even better then crickets and easy to keep. I hate crickets too, every time I get them, they escape into my room out of the KK's I keep them in, even though I taped up most of the air holes, and I get them 1/4" or bigger. But feeding crickets helps vary the diet, and gives the roaches a break and a time to produce more babies for awhile. Only time I feed meal worms is right after a molt to put a little somethin' somethin' back in their trunks.


Also slings aren't that hard I don't think I really haven't had any problems.

I wish I could start a roach colony, but I only have 4 spiders, and my gramma [i live with my grandparents] is more scared of roaches than my spiders hahaha

I mist my slings the day before I feed them,
I have tried to place a leave in all the sling pots, so that I can mist over that,
rather than hitting the sling, a sort of umbrella if you like

as for feeding, I am afraid I use pinhead crickets of cricket legs for the very small ones,
but it might be a problem if you hate crickets :p

That's a good idea.
My slings vials are teensy though haha.
Thanks for all the responses, btw:)

I'm gunna just feed em pinheads.
I usually make my friend feed my big spiders when she comes over haha
I wish there was something else I could feed them.

And I was thinking about giving my Rosie a pinkie mouse, but I'm not sure, any ideas on whether this is a good idea or a bad one? she's decently sized, like 4"

:]

Yep roaches are the way to go when feeeding man! You'll like it so much better.

Roseas aren't really the type to be eating mice, usually they go to the "bird eater" species. The calcium in the bones of the mouse isn't good for T's if they get too much they will have problems molting.

oh, okay thanks!

i dunno about the roaches, all my friends/family are terrified of them >.<
thanks for all your help guys seriously btw, i'd be in a horrible panic if i didnt have all your help since i got my tarantulas.
ps i turn 17 in 7 minutes!
