[QUOTE="Whitelightning777, post: 133398, member: 26980"] Some wood chips have cedar which is bad for them. I'm sorry for your lost. Still, consider that molting is a hazardous process and they sometimes just don't make it. I had a M balfouri pass away from fecal impaction. So far as I know, conditions were pretty much ok but there was mold in the enclosure I didn't know about until it was advanced. If humidity control is a concern, try a T that isn't sensitive to it. My Lasiodora just doesn't care about humidity. I've heard from many reliable sources that Grammostola species are also very tolerant of widely varying conditions G grossa, (ultimate bucket list T) G pulchripes & G pulchra are all good. The last 2 are easier to find them the first one. There's always the Rose hair but those can have behavioral issues, being essentially bipolar and anorexic and unpredictable. [/QUOTE]
