So I am new to tarantula keeping, not new to learning about them or basic care requirements (though I know almost every species and likely individuals will be different if they are like any other animal). I have not started keeping the tarantula species I want most, currently I have no T's. But I have been researching my species for ages. I want to keep and eventually breed around 5+ years down the road when the females and males are of correct breeding age and size, G. Pulchra. I know people will likely say that's not smart or you are taking on too much too soon. I will give you some background. I never get into anything without researching extensively. I raise 6 different species of feeders currently and plan to do more. I also will have some other species of insects added to the group soon and have many spiders as well. I have reptiles and mammals, with some birds. I do rescue/rehabs. I have already figured out the size of enclosure I would give to an adult female, and the depth. Likely would give a larger enclosure than most people do (which I don't understand), and I will be filling it pretty full with Eco Earth. I will provide all my adults with multiple things because of some of the adjustments I will have to make. I have research the temperature changes and rainfall from where they come from around before, during, and after breeding.
Otherwise, I am most interested in doing stuff most people don't. In trying things most people don't and coming at it from other perspectives. I have line bred, hybrid silkworms. It has created stronger and healthier genetics within a usually weak species.
I hope to learn an amazing amount here ^^
