[JC1]

Good day everyone. i am new to the tarantula community. i got my Curly last week. its about 2cm and It loves borrowing. I do have some pictures. Its name is Chloe or Frikkie... to small to see what it is. i feed him mealworms the size of its upper body every 3 days. i mist its moss with water for drinking and to make it humid. the soil is coco peat, that i keep moist with the mist. it that Correct? its a 70x70x70mm glass cage with wooden lid. its got breathing holes on top, not the side (duh) haha... i dont see much humidity in the cage, but the soil is moist.

Hi, welcome to the forum and the hobby.

B. albopilosum prefers dry substrate, put a water bowl in and that will provide all the humidity necessary.
