I am looking to buy this t and seller wrote it and I don't know what it means
They probably wrote I2 (capital letter i), which means the sling is second instar. An instar is a completed molt cycle, so I2 (or sometimes 2I or 2i) means the sling has completed its second molt cycle and is currently on it's third.I am looking to buy this t and seller wrote it and I don't know what it means

Thanks man but I can I know how much cm is this coz I wanna buy proper size enclouser and I don'tMeans 2nd instar
Thanks man but can I know how many cm this t is gonna be? plsSome sellers actually use L2 but ultimately means the same
OP is from Poland so it's L2 which is 3rd instar iirc (I believe they count the instars from which the tarantula can feed on its own).They probably wrote I2 (capital letter i), which means the sling is second instar.
Probably not more than 1cm, your best bet will be to message the seller and ask them to give you a rough measurement though because L2 only indicates how many times it's moulted, not how big it is (an L2 A. chalcodes isn't the same size as an L2 G. iheringi).Thanks man but can I know how many cm this t is gonna be? pls

Heat mats are a safer option, the thread below goes over how to use them safely.Thank you man
Btw this is on another topic but could you advise me what kind of heat lamp would be good, or if heat lamp is bad idea, what to use to rise temperature in enclouser coz in poland sometimes weather is like 10C more or less, and it's too low to run furnace and I don't know what to use in these situasions
I think you are right on that re feedingOP is from Poland so it's L2 which is 3rd instar iirc (I believe they count the instars from which the tarantula can feed on its own).
