    Pinktoe Tarantula Enclosure Advice Needed.

    I planned on adding 2 more vents, I also don't keep my substrate too moist, because humidity in Florida is always high, usually 90's.

    Pinktoe Tarantula Enclosure Advice Needed.

    It's made by Dream Co. Plastics. You can get the vent holes lasered in for extra instead of aluminum vents. Mine used to go to the bottom of her old enclosure for drinks. This enclosure is still pretty new to her so she's still not 100% comfortable in it yet.

    Pinktoe Tarantula Enclosure Advice Needed.

    Always good to have lots of things to anchor Web to since they Web quite a bit. I included a pic of the enclosure I just put together for my C. Versicolor as an example!

    Which roach species should I go with?

    I use discoids, they work pretty good for all but the smallest T's, but they also burow like bubia.

    Discoid Roaches!

    Are there any statistics that show nutritional wise how a discoid stacks up against a dubi?

    Discoid Roaches!

    I live in Florida, it's illegal to have Dubi Roaches here. I figured Discoids would be the next best thing. I was thinking about keeping a small colony of these. My only local pet store that carries these does not have a large supply, and charges like a dollar a roach. I've heard of Cape Cod...

    G. Pulchripes molt#2

    I just figured he would do what he did the first time and burrow down and make himself a little cave

    G. Pulchripes molt#2

    Well my G. Pulchripes finally molted again yesterday for the 2nd time. It's a little weird though, it didn't burrow down this time. It made a little bed area and molted there.

    Might take another day or 2 for the GBB pic. It's still curled up a bit in recovery mode sitting on it's molt!

    GBB sling!

    That's what mine does, I have it in a juvenile size Terrestrial from jamies enclosures with a tiny water dish and plant and it webbed up the place.
