Keep it in its current place and keep hydrated. I think the other lesson to be learned is not to manually heat a tarantula unless it involves heating the whole room. Heat pads, lamps, whatever heating water contraption you had going, they're all bad and can be life threatening to tarantulas. Hope you're sling pulls through</p></blockquote><p></p>
