I haven't chosen a name for him just yet but here he is, my first time holding him. He's very friendly, not at all aggressive. I put him in his new cage last night and he went without hesitation. He was quiet and not moving for the first few hours but he had his first meal and he webbed*. I'm guessing he's feeling comfortable <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> *I read up on tarantula webbing since I know they do not like other spiders. My question though; Is this a sign of comfort?Also, my name is Jordan and I'm looking forward to being apart of this forum and learning/connecting with other tarantula owners. I've wanted a tarantula for so many years. Not sure why it took so long to finally adopt one. I wouldn't change him for the world ️<img class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" alt="❤️" title="Red heart    :heart:" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/7.0/png/unicode/64/2764.png" data-shortname=":heart:" />Cheers!</blockquote>
