thanks for the complimentJessica Dring;2681193; said:Thats one cute lil sling.
However I'm gonna be a total jerk and say what I think everyone should be thinking..
why ya wanna stress your T out and make it shed hairs man?
Not cool.
Don't you know that a T kicking hairs is extremely stressful for them? Sorry but some one had to say it.
I have slings that kick hairs (boehmi) and green bottle blue (when coming up to a molt) that will kick hairs if you even open the lid! I hate stressing them out for that!

ok, thanks. not going to argue w/ u on this one.Jessica Dring;2682318; said:A 'good' habitat and the fact it is 'fat' isn't an indicator of a completely healthy spider.
Infact, spiders shouldn't be overly fat.
If he kicks hairs at everything anyway then I really don't understand why you would want to make it worse
I wasn't trying to argue with you, but I really think you need to rethink what you do to your animals and the stress i causes them. Then again I didn't think you'd take advice from anybody, let alone somebody a litttle more experience with spiders. No one on this site ever does
P.S - If a spider is flicking hairs at its prey, you should try smaller/different prey items. Hair kickers should rarely be afraid of their food.
Nice lil sling anyway.
