Hey guys.
I'm asking this question because my friend who's raising my T's until I move to the states.
But he's adamant about using jamies inclosures or ones like that.
To put it simply, I have the money for some tarantulas but not their enclosures.
I see a lot of well known breeders and YouTube personalities who have them in Rubbermaid homes and makeshift enclosures. When I pointed this out he argued he has cats.
I too have a cat and he's never done anything with my tarantulas.
He and I are not wealthy people, so I find it very silly he says if he's going to have a tarantula it's the best enclosure or nothing.
Perhaps I am wrong, but if it has enough air, and emulates their native home I fail to see why a Tupperware isn't good.
I'm not trying to make fun of my friend, I just think his obsession with a $80-140 enclosure is absurd.
Any advice is most welcome.
