  • OMG I DID

    I FORGOT TO SUBSCRIBE:O

  • Sorry,but that isnt apropiated for Grammostola!! It needs at least 20cm of earth!! Because most of the Grammostola loves to dig a Burrow!! But its the only bad thing in the Terra!! For other species it would be apropiated I think..

  • @Jonnyboyfernandez2 The thing you need to remember is that tarantulas aren't really the ideal animal to cuddle with. Even though there are many species that are docile enough to be handled, free-handling tarantulas aren't recommended by most keepers. Not because of the risk of bites,(except for poecilotheria sp and others with a more potent venom), but rather because not stressing it and lower the risk of the T getting hurt. Handle in moves, health check and cleaning only. =)

  • I'm thinking about gettin one but I'm scared to hold it because of it biting me... Should I?

  • is a 55 gallon tank good

  • do you have video for arboreal type?

  • @TheTurtleKid07

    No you dont need it. Actually i Have R. Hair and actually lights dry out the tarantula. I consider and under tank heater or keep the tank heated without it. I have a light on mine, buts dim and wont dry it out. But honestly just keep it kinda dark in the room, no bright lights on it, just keep it dim but not completly dark in the day

  • some1 plz answer i got a rose hair tarantula and do i need a light like is it a necessity ?

  • @jambiiii00

    @jambiiii00 cos i haven't done one. My comments are not meant to offend, but rather to help you improve the video's that you do put out there. If you feel the points i made to be untrue then fine, but you are not giving sound advice with the current video. If you truly do care for your T's then i doubt you would want harm or wrong care come to others. And finally, if you can't take constructive criticism then maybe you shouldn't post your video's on such a public forum.

  • @MrFozzyBear

    cant find a vid of your T housing.
