Sad news

I was feeding my T's last night and I found my little B. smithi sling dead. It had just moulted, but I didn't see any problems with the moult or with the sling. It was in a death curl in its tunnel.

Aww, Mina, I am very sorry for your sling. :( Was that the only smithi you had?

I'm sorry to hear that. How long had you had the little guy?

Bummer :(

Erik, yes, it was the only smithi I had, I don't do a lot of more than one type. I have 6 G. rosea and 2 L. parahybana, other than that they are all different. The really sad part is it was really tiny, probably lived less than a year total, and was my Mother's Day present from my husband.

Tigerlily, I got him May 14, and he was about a half an inch at the time.

However Botar has slings and Paul said I can have another one as soon as we can make arrangements with Botar. I just miss my little Algonquin..........

mina are you a member of arachnoboards by chance?

Bodar, yes I'm on arachnoboards as well as here.
