Pet tarantulas don t require much space so please don t make the mistake of providing a large enclosure.
Dropped tarantula carpet 3 feet.
This feature is not available right now.
Once you have a tarantula in your hands keep it in the palm of your hand and do not drop it if you can help it.
In fact it takes only a fall of a few inches to cause serious damage to the spider.
While normally tough enough to protect against minor infractions the tarantula exoskeleton can be described as delicate antique china or even possibly sugar glass.
Rule 3 clean the terrarium regularly.
It s so fragile that if you drop a tarantula even a small distance it will explode or shatter.
Woo thats wierd lol.
Because the exoskeleton is very fragile if a tarantula is dropped from a low height it will shatter and die.
Using a container and a long stick or spoon can move the spider.
Remove your tarantula from its terrarium and place it in a secure habitat so that it can t escape.
Dropping a tarantula can kill it.
I dropped my tarantula from about 3 feet his abdomen is not broken and he is not leaking any fluid is he ok.
If you need to move a tarantula you can do so without touching it.
Next you need to use a 3 bleach cleaner to scrub the terrarium and furnishings before you fill it with new substrate.
Tell me who dropped it mike or him.
Arboreals are better at surviving it though but will still probably kill them.
Please try again later.
10 weird and wonderful oddities of nature the list.
He isnt his normal self hes just sitting in his cage and wont move when poked or prodded or he is reluctant to move i called some vet hospitals and they said he may be stunned or dazed from the fall and i should give him 8 12 hours.
Their cage should be approximately 3 4 times their legspan so if you have a 3 inch tarantula something in the 9 12 inch range is completely adequate.
