I have 3 B albopilosum about 0.5-1cm, was 4 but one died today
I got them on Wednesday and fed them yesterday on tiny baby lobster roaches, the 1 that died didn't eat.
when should I next offer food?
The roaches i fed them were nearly as big as they are.
I don't have anything smaller but they managed to eat them OK.

Cant really answer your question mate but i found having slings to be rather expensive on the food front. I kept buying small brown crix for my 2 Emilia slings. The food more often or not was as big as the sling. Ended up with 2 dead slings, 1 was eaten no doubt by the crix and the other just died somehow. Havnt kept another sling since

I feed mine twice maybe 3 times a week most weeks.

I feed 5 fruit flies twice a week, i think they are the safest when a moult is due. I tried breeding crx for pin heads, just to much hassle for what you get.

OK
Its just I read the other day that someone feeds their slings every day and I though this was a bit too much
I'll leave them for a couple of days.

I feed some of mine every day, it just depends on species. Most I do every 2 days unless they are due a moult.

Hmm depends . Feeding everyday could be seen as power feeding. Slings do eat quite a bit but then any spid would if you gave it food lots! I feed my slings about twice a week, just one cricket at a time. Normally i feed a crix thats a bit bigger than it should be and jst crush it so it can't harm the spider. Then the spid gets a bigger meal so needs feeding less often.
All my slings of various sizes and species are thriving

I see your point about it being power feeding, but I only do it to get them 0over the vunerable stage. After that, I move to 2 or 3 times a week.
