Huh? What separate thread?I have moved these replies to a separate thread. Carry on.

This setup is very good - if your goal is to kill your Avic as soon as possible.View attachment 330293 I have a pink toe but she won’t eat, I’m getting worried for her
Lemme show u my pink toe
Well my Tarantula is doomed anyways cause I got her from PetSmartNolan I've told you what you needed to do and sent you a video on how a pink toe should be set up. I was under the impression you'd provided a vertical hide?
That's a terrible thing to type. Just give her to someone who will care for her properly.Well my Tarantula is doomed anyways cause I got her from PetSmart
Ok, so try to work with the enclosure you have. Get some cork bark, or even dried wood from outside and put it upright - upright is important. Put some webbing anchors (fake leaves etc.) around the top with enough space for the tarantula to make a web in between them. Dry out the substrate - completely. Get a very well ventilated lid. And tell your dad killing animals is not a good way to educate children.Well my dad says that the last enclosure I’m getting
If I can I’ll try to drill some holes or move her to something even smaller
Go and buy a big container of cheese balls, eat them all in 1 day. This can be used as an enclosure, enclosures can be used from empty food containers. You can poke holes in it. Then you can get a piece of wood and bake it in the oven to kill anything. This would be my route if your dad doesn’t want to spend money. There are simple ways to make it work if you don’t have money.Well my dad says that the last enclosure I’m getting

Maybe I’ll try finding someone who can take care of her properly and try moving to another species maybe like a G. Pulchripes, or do you know any tarantulas that are like simple?That's a terrible thing to type. Just give her to someone who will care for her properly.

I wanna send it to you but you live in England and didn’t I hear that it illegal to ship animals to you?
Unfortunately like I already told you the enclosure your dad bought you is for a small/young reptile so unless you fill it 3/4 full with substrate it's not suitable. It's a real shame you're unable to find a suitable enclosure for your pink toe given that a tall cereal tub would be enough. I'm sure there will be someone local who has experience with tarantulas and would provide yours with a great forever home.Maybe I’ll try finding someone who can take care of her properly and try moving to another species maybe like a G.

I managed to find a jar but one problem I need your guys help with, how many crossed ventilation holes should I use?Unfortunately like I already told you the enclosure your dad bought you is for a small/young reptile so unless you fill it 3/4 full with substrate it's not suitable.

In his defense, if he did look up information online, he would probably be told to keep it in a 50 gal tank, with heating pads on all 6 side, plenty of substrate for his pink toe to burrow and to mist the enclosure with a half gallon of water every 4 hours.This setup is very good - if your goal is to kill your Avic as soon as possible.
That was probably a bit harsh, but it is really not that difficult to research the species you are getting before you are getting it.
Avicularias are arboreals, meaning tree dwelling spiders. What you need is a tank that's higher than long with plenty of ventilation, upright standing cork bark with fake leaves around the top, a water bowl, and DRY substrate. I'd be more surprised if it would eat in that setup than to hear it isn't eating.
