Hello, I am new to this whole thing lol and I really could use some help as I keep getting conflicting information. I’ve tried to get info on my spider through Petco and a local pet store. He was a rescue and about to be mailed for states away if I didn’t take him in and was sort of a gift so, this isn’t me getting an animal. I can’t take care of lol I just need to know about the heat source and humidity since everything. I’m reading conflicts with everything else. I’d also like to know if somebody can give me a good idea on when the fangs are ready to consume food after a molt , thank you

ETA, it's under the Tarantula Questions section

Do you have a picture, and size estimate? Common names are not helpful and can even be made up. There's a Mexican rose and a Mexican rose grey 🤣 🙄 but husbandry won't be too far off....size would be more important

Aphonopelma palladium ("Mexican rose" or "rose grey" and Tliltocatl verdezi ("Mexican rose grey")
And they look pretty similar to the untrained eye

Why common names should be scrapped
