hello, ı wıll buy p. auratus and h. gigas in winter.
So, are these creatures resilient?
Are they resistant to winter conditions?
What is the minimum temperature at which they can survive?

This sight has one of the best search functions I've ever seen. Not that I'm unwilling to answer the questions that I can, but I've been able to find MULTIPLE answers to almost every question I've ever had with a basic search, & haven't even needed to log in. How to make this a more attractive feature, should be the question.
Direct interaction is always a plus, & one should never feel bad about asking directly, but that preliminary grasp for an answer could be SO much more easily obtained...

Well, do you heat your house? Where are you from? What do you heat your house with? How will you keep your tarantula?

is this a shipping question? Our a household question?

if buying in winter with shipping, death on arrival is always a possibility.

keeping said tarantula in your home in winter, it will probably have a shock from where it was and where you are. But you wont be the last to purchase tarantulas in winter.

it does make a difference. Though.

people dont really bring it up often, but getting a tarantula shipped in winter has its challenges.

they will come from a hot room and travel in less then hot, then they arrive at you. Is it dead cold, mild? Warm?

you are from turkey? So maybe hotter then us in the americas. Much better chances of survival right there. Guessing you are ordering from europe.
