I used a tweezer to first gently squeeze her body to me because I was going to rehome her to a new enclosure.Two questions: They said that touching a tarantula with a tweezer or paintbrush is a way to determine its temperament. My baby here just calmly walked whenever the tweezers touched her. Does that mean she's in a good mood? She was very motionless on my palm and I had to gently push her back to her home cause I needed my hand lol. Although the second time I picked her up with a tweezer she left a trail of webbing.Second one, is it bad to regularly let her hang out on my palm? I was thinking of doing it a few times so she can get comfortable with that activity.<img src="http://i.imgur.com/YOM3CsT.jpg?1" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></blockquote>
