Lol I posted to the wrong contest and I can’t figure out how to delete it so here’s this lol her names Mori hahaha

I handle my pink toe on my queen sized bed so that if she crawls off my hand I have time to pick her up again and it’s nice soft cushion keeps the spider safe. That’s the best way I have found to hold a T

Ya I guess it would be but your better off using a wet paper towel or egg carton chunk. They don’t really drink out of bowls and it’s just way easier to use a paper towel! But if you wanted to make like a cool natural setup for the roaches which I’m guessing your gonna feed to something than I...

Ya sorry I forgot to mention I have a small water bowl and suction cup plants and other stuff sorry. I said specifically the cork bark because then she can hid there my bad but Thankyou for the advice. If that by any chance doesn’t work what should I do?

Hi guys it’s your boy again. I have some more questions about my Avic not eating. I got her New Year’s Eve and have her in a good cage setup with lots of airflow and cork bark to climb on. Only problem is that she will not eat. I tried roaches first cause they are easier to deal with but she...

I will probably do substrate anyways though just because it makes the cage look more natural

One last question. Is it true that they will shoot there droppings at you if they are scared?

Of corse I picked that up don’t worry. Thankyou SOO much I appreciate it

Thank you everyone for the advice it means a lot sorry if it seemed like I was coming across as a little stubborn and misinformed because I was a little misinformed and I just want to give this T the best life it can have. I am super passionate about this stuff so I am never afraid to ask...

So what your saying is to keep them dry but not too dry? Like provide amble sources of water but don’t attempt to make the air more humid and don’t attempt to make the soil more humid

If you don’t mind me asking. What state do you live in? Or country.

And again I am a warm blooded mammal that has thick skin and fatty layers to deal with the cold and I can wear a hoodie. This tropical T can’t regulate there body temperature on there own and doesn’t have the anatomy built for cold dry weather. Stop saying that if I can the T can’t because for...

I wasn’t saying he was dumb I was saying the same example was dumb because even the Ts raised here I Colorado are still bred in terrariums with high humidity. They are still bred in similar environments to those of there native origin. And the Ts in your region are adapted to that. I’m trying to...

Not to mention this example is dumb because humans are warm blooded and can change our body heat depending on the weather. Tarantulas can’t. They are cold blooded and have adapted over millions of years to live in the environments they live in. Not to mention if you have a person who is used to...

Yes but a tarantula can’t live in Colorado in the wild. They still need humidity and heat requirements because if I were to let my tarantula go outside for the winter he would definitely die. I’ve heard that 25 watt bulbs only produce 70 degrees of heat. And if I put the heat bulb away from the...

Ok that makes since. During the summer my room stays a good temp so I won’t have to worry about it then but during the winter is when it gets tricky. Thank you so much for the advice.

the humidity system I bought for the cage has a gage on it so maybe I do a lower setting of humidity and the cage I’m getting will have a screen top so lots of air flow and I will put the fogged in the side with the water bowl so that excess moisture goes into the bowl and not on everything...

Thank you so much for your reply’s but I still have a few questions. For instance Ive heard pink toes need 70 to eighty percent humidity and in Colorado it’s 20 percent. Also are you sure I can’t use a small low watt heat bulb because my dad might beat me if I touch the thermostat lol

Hello fellow arachnid enthusiasts! I am new to the hobby and I just wanted to get a few questions answered before I get my Pink toe tarantula this week. My first question is that I live in Colorado and it gets quite cold here so my room gets cold. Much cooler than pink toe Ts thrive in. Would a...
