A week ago I bought my first tarantula (not true, I had a pink-toe when I was about 13, didn't know what I was doing, it didn't live very long). This time, I've done a lot more research and am pretty confident I can take care of one now, but still, the more information and input I can get from people that have tarantulas, the better. I bought a Chaco Golden Knee, I hear they're really calm and great for starters, plus they get huge.
Right now, it's just a spiderling. When I bought it (about a week ago) it was about the size of a quarter, and I'm not sure if it's in my head or not, but I think it's already bigger than that. Right not, it's in a container about 1.5"x1.5" wide and 3" tall, how long until I should move it into a bigger container and how much bigger of a container? I have a 20 gal fish tank that I plan on moving it into later down the road, how big should it be when I move it in there?
Right now I feed it three small crickets a week, two on Monday one on Thursday. Is that too much or too little?
I'll really appreciate any advise, like I stated earlier, can never have too much info.
Thanks for reading
