I have a Curly Hair sling body length 6mm and can't get it to eat tried crickets with no luck is there anything i can do.

Only ever had a Chili 10 month old so sling new to me possibly be a molt coming up due to black spot or it could be from previous molt.

Any ideas it's kept in a rearing pot 98mm High x 48mm Wide.

If the black/dark spot is the abdomens skin then it will be preparing itself for a moult.
If the abdomen is full/distended the hair that normally covers it shrinks back and looks like a dark spot on the top of the abdomen, this would mean its pretty full and may not want to eat

Will give it a few days before feeding it again.

Do you know of any sites where i can download a growth/feeding record chart for my 3 spiders.

Just want to keep a record of there feeds and molts for my 10 month Chili Rose, Curly Hair sling, Chili Flame sling .
