    Re: Spider Growth Rate Poll

    I put yes but that in no way shape or form means all spiders grow faster then normals or any other morph. She was just well fed and happened to grow like a weed.

    Re: Spider Growth Rate Poll

    I have 2 09 spider females and 1.1 09 fires they all four eat every 5 days and seem to be all growing at about the same rate. Not much difference at all so far but I have only had them for a few months so I guess I will see in time if that changes.

    Re: Spider Growth Rate Poll

    I can't speak to the growth, so I selected Maybe. But my spider seems to have a great feeding sense. I've only recently bought her, but she is 5/5 on feedings and only missed one strike on her F/T
    1.0 Normal Ball "Hubert" (617g)
    0.1 Spider Ball "Mary Jane" (280g)
    1.0 Pastel Ball "Malcolm" (coming soon)
    1.0 overweight Boston Terrier "Bandit"

    If you wanted to comment on a post that is four years old, I'd not write this. I did not want to sound like a jerk. I did my best.

    What the heck is even with this necro post :/

    To be more on topic: Serket is about a month older than Strudel, they both eat a rat pup every week, but I'm already thinking of switching Serket to weans because the pups don't seem to give her a belly lump any more. Had them both for a little over a month now, so I'll grab some weights for an exact comparison next time they have good bowel movements. Should be soon since they both ate on Friday and Serket is getting ready to shed probably tomorrow or Thursday.
