I am very excited to finally have a reason to post in this forum! I have been a lurker since September. I am going to be getting my first T very soon, hopefully this week. I will be getting a Rosie that I feel needs rescuing from a local pet store where I went to buy a house for my new T, and probably a Brachypelma species from a local breeder. I'm thinking probably smithi. My questions are,
1. Where do you guys buy coconut fibre? At pet stores?
2. In the care sheet sticky on Rosie's, it says to feed them a few crickets every two or three weeks. But on the forum I see that some people feed their T's several times a week. Any advice about this? For Rosies and smithi's.
3. Is a terra cotta pot on its side a good hide for these two? In separate cages of course!
4. Should I worry about them being able to see the natural light so they know when it is night and day?
5. Is $40cad too much for a six legged three or so inch Rosie?
Thank you all in advance for any advice you can give me. I am excited to meet my new pets. Thank you all for the informative reading and fabulous pictures that I have been enjoying for months. Merry Christmas!!
