Now I'M doing the happy dance....

And it has nothing to do with food....I just got in my new and very 1st T. It is a Brachypelma emilia, and she is lovely. I say she because that's what I want....It is a 2" unsexed T. I can't believe I did it, but I have already held her. I now have her in her new home and will be leaving her alone for awhile to let her adjust. When should I start feeding her?

[Darwinsdad]

Give "her" a few days to settle in and adjust. Once she looks to be relaxed in her new home give her some food. Might only take a day or a cpl of hours depending on the speciman. Enjoy, the contrast of the black and red is awsome when they get a little bigger.

well then i guess i will be trying to feed her today, and if it doesn't work well then, there's always later...........Thx Darwinsdad

No thanks needed but you will be very pleased with yourself when yours looks alot like this one.

I love emilias...I'd get one of those before I'd get a smitty.

Good choice. I know you will be happy. We usually always hope they are females. Hey I do anyways!
