cool little tidbit...
ive noticed my tarantulas seem to be out and about more often than what other members on the boards describe. i often see tarantulas that others describe as ghosts daily. my T room is fairly dark all day till 11pm, when i usually go to bed. my space heater goes off and on on a timer all day to keep temps 71+, its also positioned in the middle of the room. (if that has anything to do with it.)
spiders ive raised from slings are usually quite active. larger spiders ive purchased from people are ghosts for months before becoming more visible like the rest of my collection. my aurantiaca i bought about a month ago molted a couple weeks ago and ive seen it out once. same thing with my stirata i bought last July, was a ghost for a long time but after a few months became much more active.
so who really knows what kind of adaptations tarantulas are capable of.
