all you experienced tarantula keepers know the importance of keeping a water dish in your Ts tank (assuming the T is at least a couple inches big) but it's worth reminding all those new to the hobby that a water dish is a MUST.
My Rose Hair is my most hydrophobic tarantula. she throws a tiny fit every time i overfill her water dish even by a squirt. However, she just molted this afternoon and spent the entire morning sitting INSIDE her water dish, preparing herself for the molt.
I'm glad to report that it was a successful molt, but it just goes to show you that no matter how "dry" a tarantula might like it, you still need to keep a water source present.
