I just purchased a cobalt blue tarantula. When i got her in the mail she was very lively and was quick to let me know she wasnt happy with being shipped. She is in a ten gallon tank with several inches of substrate for her to burrow. She has a small water dish and the tempeture is about eighty degrees and the humidity is up. I own several tarantulas and did hours of research before deciding on a cobalt. When i got her in the tank she went straight up the tank walls and sat on the sides. The very next day she was curled up under a log. Getting worried i pushed her a lil with a paintbrush. it took several good pushes to get her to move. She is very lethergic. She has ate two crickets and it woke her up bit. She retreated into a half flower pot I had placed in the tank for her to use if desired, webbed the opening closed. When i misted the tank this morning she went into defense mood and try to charge the mist. She then ran back up the side of the tank walls. I am so confused if she is sick or what it could be. First time purchasing a T through the mail and I have never had one act this way. Help please.!
