Secondly it will hake time for any tarantula to settle into a new home so you need to leave it alone for a time. Very few tarantula keepers handle their Ts as it stresses them and a fall can be fatal, if you feel the need to handle yours always do it over a soft surface and low down so if it jumps or falls off you it hasn't far to fall but please give it time to settle, maybe a month. She'll start webbing her home once she's settled in and then she'll start feeding too.</p></blockquote><p></p>
