[QUOTE="Tomoran, post: 65829, member: 1152"] Yup, I have to agree with the others. Bone dry substrate with a water dish. If they web it over (and they likely will), you can pour a bit of water onto the web once a week or so (it's waterproof, and low spots will collect water like a dish). There is no need to worry about humidity with this species. If you can find some really old husbandry sheets for GBBs, you'll find folks talking about how they are fragile and can die easily. That was because people were keeping them on moist substrate in an effort to keep the humidity up. Once keepers switched to dry, they were thriving. This is a very hardy tarantula with very simple husbandry. :) [/QUOTE]
