hi all
ive had my pink toe for about a month now and she eats enough and dosnt go to the ground so she seems ok and happy.
but she still hasnt webbed.
i changed her tank a week ago i added a peice of tree branch, one of those bendy vine things you get in reptile shops and a smaller peice of cork bark high up so i could give her a better way to webb.
but she just sits on the side of the glass most of the time.
she swapps sides alot, one day she will be on the right then the next she will be on the left wall.
i just wandered how long it takes to settle, do these species take a while to webb, like untill there totally settled?
i used to have a collection of tarantulas i had 9 and back then i had a pink toe.
she was smaller then the one i have now and i had her for a year and abit.
then oneday she was dead.
she webbed a little bit buy not as much as i had hoped or seen from other people.
the tank my new one is in is a tall exoterra tank, ive put sanwhich bags over one side of the mesh and a little on one harf of the other so that she can have humidity but airflow aswell.
she has a large water dish on the floor to help the humidity.
ever since i read the tarantulas keep guide i havnt sprayed my tropical species too much, because of risk of mould ect, i know they arnt swamp dwellers.
so she has humidity and good air flow.
i just wandered if she is ok and just slow at webbing or im doing somthing wrong.
my new p.irmina webbed the second night i had her.
i know every spider differs from the rest but i guess im just being paranoid i dont want her to die or be uncomfortable.
so any advice?
maybe some pictures of webs and tank setups would help too
sorry for long post
i eagerly await your replies.
thankyou for your time and putting up with what seem to be noob questions but im no noob, just panick and am inpatiant.
