Hello everyone! This is my first post on this forum, and boy, do i have alot of questions! I'm new to tarantula/scorpion keeping, so please bare with me if i ask stupid questions. I'm about a week away from purchasing my first tarantulas and scorpions. I live in australia so i'm a bit limited. Heres what i'm getting:
Selenotypus Wallace sling - tarantula
Selenotypus exevale sling - tarantula
Urodacus manicatis - scorpion
Urodacus armatus - scorpion
The T's come with a container that supposedly will be okay for 12 months. I just have a few worries about their care:
- What substrate? I was thinking of getting some coco peat from bunnies at 2 bucks a brick for all of them.
-heating? I live in NSW, Australia. It's pretty warm out here so i think they'd be fine? Where i'm keeping them theres no powerpoints.
-Food? How often do i feed them all? I have been told every week, every two weeks and once a month!
-Supplements? Do they need any sort of calcium if they're fed on crickets and mealworms?
That's about all for now. I hope you guys can help! Thanks. !
