The general opinion on here seems to be that if the room temperature is comfortable for you then it will be fine for your T.

Overnight in the freezer...? I wouldn't release outside.... invasive species and all that...

I'm not sure you need to supply extra heat for a tarantula...unless your house is EXTREMELY cold....and definitely don't heat from below or you will end up cooking the T as they naturally burrow if they get too warm...

Is it just me, or does anyone else think this op is just trolling the forum for a laugh....?

Sorry for your loss....

Do a search on this forum for the company name and see what others have said about them....you should also consider buying from private sellers that advertise here. Look in the 'for sale' part. Anyone who has sold before will have ratings and will want to keep them high by making sure you get a...

Unless you know the species of 'worm' or can post a photo to have it identified on the forum, you are potentially putting your T in danger....yes, it is PROBABLY harmless, but why risk it..?

The general consensus is that heat tape/mats are unnecessary for keeping tarantulas and can even lead to a 'cooked' one if you are not careful. I don't know what your experience level is, but if you are just starting out you should read this post...

Beautiful..!

Nice..!

We call 'only' a week of heavy rain '' summer.!' Seriously, your helpful advice is noted. Thanks to everyone for their helpful advice...it is very much appreciated.

Advice here on slings would seem to suggest damp to wet substrate whatever the T type, and slowly changing that to dry (for B Smithi) as they change to juveniles.....have I got that right..?

Thank you both for the quick replies....the vent holes are only about 3mm....., But easily changed. I'm thinking of damp substrate, with a wet patch around the water dish....or should the whole enclosure be wet.? The enclosure came from here...

Hi all After months of prevarication I finally ordered my first T, a one inch B. Smithi, due to be delivered towards the end of the month. I have read the various care posts (thanks to everyone who took time to contribute to them) .and i am now trying to ensure the enclosure is correct. I have...
