Experience with N. incei Growth Rates

[gabrieldezzi]

Hello everyone! Yesterday, I picked up a N. incei (olive form) sling from my local expo and right now is about half the size of a U.S penny coin (spider about 1/4th of an inch!). I fattened him up with some prekilled small crickets and he's at a nice abdomen size now (still hard to see!). Keeping up with little drips of water on his substrate to keep it moist but it got me thinking..

For those of you who've had N. incei, what were growth rates like?

Very Fast esp if you feed high fat prey
And almost as fast on crix only

1 more thing- this is one of the best and one of the most under rated species out there. You made a great choice

I'm very excited to raise this little guy, I got him the same time as a confirmed female C. darlingi I also picked up yesterday. Both I am very excited to introduce to my collection.
