Hey guys! Just ordered a 1” P. Irminia and was wondering what’s the best size enclosure for it. And what I can feed it. Ps. First arboreal sling
Sigh... another year, another round of unprepared keepers buying the spider first and researching after...Hey guys! Just ordered a 1” P. Irminia and was wondering what’s the best size enclosure for it. And what I can feed it. Ps. First arboreal sling
Do your T a favor and start using AB as your first source of info and NOT YouTube.Thanks for the information guys. I know I sound like I haven’t researched anything but I’ve been looking into this guy for a while now but YouTube or google didn’t really have information I needed but this really helped out. Gonna use my amazon prime to order everything quick before it arrives.
Yeah everyone here responds quickDo your T a favor and start using AB as your first source of info and NOT YouTube.
That is not why I recommend. The info elsewhere is always suspect. Only a few YouTubers worth watching. And never rely on FB.Yeah everyone here responds quick
I watched Tom Moran’s video, the dark den, tarantula dans which is what got me into tarantulas and I’ve kept other animals so I know that I won’t kill my slingThat is not why I recommend. The info elsewhere is always suspect. Only a few YouTubers worth watching. And never rely on FB.
The first two I'd recommend, the last one I don't know. We observe a lot new tarantula owners quoting YouTube ending up with dead Ts or close to it. Woudn't want you to be the first.I watched Tom Moran’s video, the dark den, tarantula dans which is what got me into tarantulas and I’ve kept other animals so I know that I won’t kill my sling
They are my fav. kind of users and I'm happy that, thankfully, traditions are respectedSigh... another year, another round of unprepared keepers buying the spider first and researching after...
For an even faster response, I'd recommend typing whatever you have planned for a thread title into the search box before making a thread. Instant reaponses!Yeah everyone here responds quick
I still like his videos tho but yeah I know not to handle the tarantula. I’m more of an observer not a handlerI'm not a big fan of Daniel 'Tarantuladan' Oakley. He handles everything. Trapdoors, Pokies, Baboons..it sets abad example even though he puts 'I'm a professional and know what I'm doing, don't handle your spiders' in pretty much every vids. I'm always a bit sceptic about the effectiveness of that sort of lines. Viewers see a 'cool guy' handling potentially dangerous animals and will try to copy, since they want to be the cool guy as well. It's just covering the ass of the uploader so he can claim ' i didn't make them do it'.
I know he handles some Ts that most people shouldn’t, but I don’t think that discredits him as a source of information. There are shows where people handle venomous snakes, for example, just because they handle an animal the average snake enthusiast doesn’t start handing venomous snakes. I’m sure there are people who want to do stupid stuff regardless of if a well known person also does it. People find it easier to blame their actions on others rather than take responsibility for their actions. I believe recently TarantulaDan made a 20 minute video about handling.I'm not a big fan of Daniel 'Tarantuladan' Oakley. He handles everything.
