(depending on the species) i know. but for a species that requires humidity, how important is it that the humidity temps are correct? and what can happen if they are not kept correct
All of those listed tend to be on the drier side, GBB in my experience tend to shy away from too much moisture but having said that, they usually web over everything including the substrate which I suppose makes them self regulating anyway.i was just asking like in general but i guess a few species im curious about would be Green bottle blue, Brazilian black, curly hair, chile rose (i apologize for not using the scientific names im still memorizing)
and big thansk to the previous comments

What are common examples of humid species? The ones that hobbyists can readily get their hands on. Thanks in advance.
I have all of those as slings under 1" and one juvie GBB (Chromatopelma cyanopubescens) about 3". Both of my GBB like it dry. I use dry substrate (they spend all their time in their web tunnels) and a water dish. I'll occasionally mist the webbing to watch them drink the droplets. I tried moist substrate with them once and they stayed on the walls and plants until i redid their enclosure with dry substrate, then they went back down to the "ground" to do their crazy webbing If you give them plants and anchors, kind of like an arboreal setup they'll web all over.i was just asking like in general but i guess a few species im curious about would be Green bottle blue, Brazilian black, curly hair, chile rose (i apologize for not using the scientific names im still memorizing)

A. geniculata I use a water dish and moist sub as stated above with vermiculite added to help keep the moisture.What are common examples of humid species? The ones that hobbyists can readily get their hands on. Thanks in advance.
I too moist my genic but not so much. But I don't really know if genics are humid species. They can still be kept like a smithi right? Dry sub with water dish...A. geniculata I use a water dish and moist sub as stated above with vermiculite added to help keep the moisture.
Everything I've read and been told here is they love the moisture.I too moist my genic but not so much. But I don't really know if genics are humid species. They can still be kept like a smithi right? Dry sub with water dish...
I've read this too, and I guess would explain why my genic sling has been hovering about his waterdish a lot lately.Everything I've read and been told here is they love the moisture.
