    How do you move your tarantula collection long distances?

    Just moved from MI to NE and brought my whole collection with me. The trailer I had didn't have AC either, and temps were mostly in the high 70's, mid 80s the entire trip. Went to wal-mart, bought the largest coleman cooler i could find, and put each T in 16 or 32 oz container depending on...

    Lighting

    Heres how I keep a couple of my larger Versicolor. They make their funnels in the hollow cork tubes and are virtually hidden from the light. The lighting is mostlty for the plants though.
