My rose-haired tarantula, Fang, went to his reward after we had had him for about 10 months. He was a male and had molted once after we got him. He seemed to become frantic, running wildly around the cage, for several weeks, then seemed to lose weight and kind of fade away. He was an enchanting animal and I would love to have another tarantula at some point, but I am worried that we might have done something wrong. We gave him pet store crickets, kept his water dish full, his substrate moist, and had a heater on the bottom of his cage. We used the cage and substrate that came from Carolina Biological, the company from which we ordered him.
I would appreciate any advice about what might have happened and whether we ought to try again.
