:) I'm up to the challenge 😉 I will plan every move before I do it, Aldi will research before and after getting him/her and will look through the forum for tips. I think the only thing I won't know is what size food until they arrive. The new world sling will be the on my daughter will be most involved with but she will like to watch the old world one.

I will also wear garden gloves until I’m sure

At 16 I had a few T's no old worlds, but I never had anyone like you there, that's a major help. It's great that she's interested should get her a couple slow growing species that she can grow with, that's my plan if my kids are still interested at that age. I don't think the garden gloves will be a good idea, they will prefer to bolt and hide so you're want to be more dextrous. The garden gloves will be a bit of an issue IMO better just having a few catch cups handy and do the move inside another container or even a bathtub, after it's housed it's just going to be like most other T's feeding wise and stuff it's only really when it comes to rehousing there is going to be the difference. It's cool you got this 😎. I just wanted to make sure you knew what you were getting into, it's not often someone gets a Chalcodes and Darlingi when just getting started.
