[QUOTE="Nada, post: 1236, member: 361"] Tarantulas do not need, or like toys. Most are solitary animals. They do not need stimulation. They are still animals and conserve energy for when they need it. If your Tarantula is responding to a toy, It's because It wants to know what is in its habitat, wants to decide if it is edible or not, or thinks its an eggsac. The soggy cotton ball, or Ping Pong is likely mistaken for an eggsac. and the soggy cotton ball in particular, can be very problomatic. It's no differint than using a spounge to provide your Ts water. Its a bacteria magnet. If you want to provide your Ts "toys" just give them more hides. More hides, make for a more comfortable T.
