Hi everyone,
I bought a Thai Zebra from a pet store a week ago. The tarantula seemed quite shy when I first brought him home. I put my T in his new home 2 days after buying him. The set up is perfect! Humidity and temps are spot on, but my T seems to be acting like no other T I have ever seen. He barely moves, even when I touch his abdomen with a paint brush to get him moving. His abdomen looks fine so I don't think he is dehydrated. I am worried about this guy and I cant find much information about this species online. At the same time I bought this guy, I also bought a Starburst Baboon who is active and doing wonderful. Does anyone have any tips on this species? Does it sound like he could be sick/dying?
Thanks,
Virginia
