    Yes the probe is a thermostat that now I have put directly up the heat mat. Thank you again for your helpfulness . However tomorrow I'll buy two hides. Naom9Anne how much is the weight of your spider?

    My spider is quite small, he was only 99g when full last time. He was 87g when I bought him. He was only born on the 6th October this year so he is a baby, baby

    I have a 66g albino and a 91g bumblebee (both weighed after a meal) who are in ones very slightly smaller but with the same hides and bowl.

    Bumblebee is a very great morph in my opinion. I ask you that because I would know how you feed your hatchling snake, if you use a f/t, prekilled or live

    Of course, all of mind have F/T

    My spider is feeding very well on F/T small mice, my albino is on F/T small rat pups (which here is between a rat pinkie and a rat fuzzie) and my bumblebee is on small rat fluffs. I have only had them for two feeds each but they fed very well. I posted a thread showing pictures of them feeding last night in general BP's under 'My babies fed!' if you are interested

    Do you know a fast way for teach my bp eating f/t? Because the seller says me that she doesn't feed f/t but just only live. Anyway I have still not give her food yet because I'm waiting for Friday

    There is no 'fast' way. You can attempt to feed F/T and you may get lucky. All of mine were bought as F/T feeders which is the norm in the UK.

    You can try with F/T but if your BP won't eat F/T you may need to feed live and then offer F/T later. You may even have a BP on your hands who will only eat live. It does happen but each BP is different

    I would try to feed what it is accustomed to for the first couple feedings, after it is eating consistently then try the switch.
    It is up to you whether you want to try f/t first, but don't be discouraged if it doesn't eat. Wait 5-7 days and try with a live then.
