[QUOTE="kormath, post: 112122, member: 4199"] ignore the care sheets, they're just full of useless information and will stress you out trying to keep the humidity and temps where they say it should be. I only look at 1 care sheet - [url="http://www.mikebasictarantula.com"]www.mikebasictarantula.com[/url] - and that's just to read the growth rate, food consumption, temperament and his comments. I only buy slings, so it gives me a heads up kind of as to what i can maybe expect. My LP lives on dry eco-earth coconut fiber mixed with peat moss. I use a water dish for humidity. Room temps are 73-77 in the winter, 77-82 in the summer. Water dish is filled every other day or 3rd day depending how long it takes to evaporate. Chum is fed once a week on Sundays, but he may get a snack on Wednesday when i feed my tiny slings. He's 4" now, give or take, could be female. he's never climbed the walls that I've seen to get a vent pic and his last molt was destroyed and couldn't be sexed. Chum lives in a medium Kritter Keeper, but is going to be rehoused soon to a larger enclosure, not sure if i'll put him in the XL kritter keeper or the larger Dalle Craft enclosure. Thinking to put him in the Dalle Craft one, as it's big enough to be his final home, and i don't think it's too big to stress him out at his current size. [/QUOTE]
