So I've decided to buy a juvenile Grammostola pulchripes, the vendor I'm ordering from says it has a 1.5 inch leg span. Before I order the T I want to have all the details of it's care planned out, the enclosure ready, etc. This will be my second T and my first time caring for a juvenile (my first was an adult when I bought her). Due to my lack of experience (one year) and the lack of reliable info on the net I ask the good people of this forum to answer my questions to ensure that I am able to raise a happy, healthy son or daughter .
Should I use a small enclosure like a critter keeper for a juvenile?
Will it be ok to feed crickets to a 1.5" T? I understand that this species are good eaters.
Are the temp requirements for a juvie different than for an adult, or is room temp ok?
Is a very shallow dish ok for providing water to a juvenile?
Is there anything else I should know about caring for juveniles and for this species in general?
Thanks to everyone for reading and for any legit info on T husbandry, all replies are appreciated.
