Don't you EVER water that enclosure Dave? The decorations look very f#cken' dry mate. Mist regularly, up the temperatures and follow the Care Sheet instructions to a T. (No pun). You will have Fugly drooling slings in no time!!

Remember, Care Sheets are Gospel...

PS: On the pic of your sling, who's ass is on that poster in the background? If it is the pic of my wife you took last time we had a bar B Q, please remove...

Currently have 3 communals.

M.balfouri: Mommy with 6 slings. The babies are now around 5cm in legspan and are doing great. No hassles.

P.fasciata: 4 sub adults (2 males and 2 females around 12cm). Think the males are penultimate. I see them giving each other a hard time every now and again, but no aggression witnessed. Just a bit of chasing around at the most.

P.regalis: 10 slings around 5cm. All happy and often sit huddled together. No aggression or fighting witnessed at all.

i have:
Holothele incei x6 5-7cm ,had 15 but the rest died in molts,fights :reallysick: but the 6 have been together now for a few months :thumbsup:
p.fasciata x5 3-5cm no deayhs at all still sit in one place when it is cold :spider:
