Hello everybody,
I was just given a 5 year old chilean rose hair (female i will post a pic later this week if i make time) .
This is my first tarantula. I have placed her in a 10 gallon . Her substrate is coco fiber bedding . I compressed it to make her a fairly hard surface. she has a hide and a small piece of grape vine that she sits on ocassioally. I have a small ceramic water dish for her and wet the soil every other day or so . She is in my living room and stays around 80-90 during the day and 75-80 at night. She CHOWS the roaches I feed her, leaving the rements of the carcases in one particular corner of her cage.....dubias, small madagascars and some turkistan reds just for entertainment. She is eating 3-7 roaches every week depending on size.
If any pro T owners would like tell me what is right and wrong about my T set up or post a link to good c. rose hair T care page. Please do. I am open to suggestions and up until this little girl ( very cool and docile ) I have never had a T before and want to make sure i am doing ight by her.
Thanks
Aaron
