[QUOTE="SullivanC, post: 219248, member: 39066"] Hi :) when you get a tarantula these are important things to remember 1) Is it a fossorial, terrestrial or arboreal species? 2) Does it love humidity or loves dry? 3) What is the average temperament of the species I am going for? are they docile, mildly defensive, very defensive, skittish or defensive and skittish? this is important because if you have a idea of how their temperament usually are you can be better prepared but you should treat every tarantula as if they are defensive when you unbox or rehouse them because you never know as tarantulas can always change their temperament and they usually always do 4) The size of the tarantula, based on the size of the spider the enclosure you need will depend and to make things better its good to prepare the enclosure before you even have the tarantula because if you put tarantula in temporary enclosure while you go to get enclosure that is suitable for the tarantula better rehousing it twice will stress it alot so its always good to be prepared :) These are some good things to remember :) if you have any questions you can always ask me and others we are willing to help you out with your questions and welcome to the hobby if this tarantula is your first one :) also welcome to the forum as well :) [/QUOTE]
