I'm Amanda and I'm just getting started and have been doing some research for the past few weeks but my father who also owns quite a few Ts recommended I join a forum, so here I am. I've been looking into getting either a Mexican Redknee Mexican Fireleg or a Pink Toe, although I'm leaning towards the brachypelmas since they're terrestrial and I think we would see it more often. I really like Jamie's Tarantula enclosures which also come with some coco-fiber substrate, but I was wondering if you guys had any preferred cages and what you use for ground cover. Also any recommendations on a heating pad? I know it can get pretty chilly in my house sometimes and I don't want to risk anything getting too cold in there.</blockquote>
