Hey guys, just got two tiny little spiderlings come through. An avicularia amazonica and b.smithi, less than 1cm leg span. First time i have had any little guys this small, just wanted a little advice on how to keep them happy really.
Need to get some food for them too...any advice would be fab!
Thanks guys!

Hello,
Nice addition to your collection.
Generaly for the small terrestrial, what most of us do when dealing with slings is to get pin head crickets or small crickets and prekilled it an place it into the slings container.
Now the arboreals are a little bit more tricky, getting fruit flies is one alternative but I feed mine pin head crickets too. I just place them on their
web or I get it close to the sling so it can grab it.
You should have no problem feeding these guys.
regards
francisco
They will find the food without a problem.
Keep them humid

awesome, well at the moment i have just bought fruit flies from my local place, so i have put two in each little tub which i have put no air holes in (what my local guys recommended, they said either have 1 hole or none). Ill move up to pin heads soon then if you think thats best.
Also, have you ever heard of an avicularia amazonica? Because the guys at my local store said they have not heard of one before. But i just want to check it out.
