So I handled my G. Rosea for the first time today :D Man, that felt really REALLY weird.
But anyhow, as I put her back in the cage, she tried to climb a little, but her grip seemed to be weakened, since she fell down as soon as she had left the ground ( no damages on her abdomen).
Is it normal? She gained her grip back in a few minutes though, and is now happily back in her corner ....

just a fresh tarantula owner wondering ...
