Sound's like your new T's happy and comfortable in it's new home :) Take good care of it!

Thanks for the helpful suggestions!

I went slack-jawed after reading your response. Can't believe that's how they're taking care of these poor Ts, and it's so generous of you having tried to rescue one of them. The red trapdoor looks insane too! Hope that he/she is doing better.

I came across several discussions about the Zoo Med Excavator at different forums, someone said he/she was worried that the sand and dust may clog the T's mouth and booklungs. May i ask what kind of soft substrate do you top it off for your Ts?

I went to the pet store to grab some new substrate for my T, the staff there recommended me this. I thought it was pretty awesome to make my T her own hideout and all. But after mixing it with water, leaving to dry, when it becomes rock hard i don't think she can burrow in it. After forming the...

My first tarantula in the hobby.

I have an A.Geniculata (my first-ever T) that's just molted today and was wondering when i should start feeding her again. I googled about it and a post said it can depend on the tarantula's size. My T has a 3-inch legspan, i was thinking maybe at least a week? But when exactly is it good for...
