Question:

Everything you need to know about Tarantulas?

I‘m thinking about getting a pet Tarantula, and I want to know everything about them, please. Like how much do I feed them? Do they need light? Is there any way to prevent them from biting you when holding them? I‘m thinking about holding him on a towel on my knees and stuff. What kind of container do they need? What type should I get, this is my first one? I‘d like to know everything you know, please. :D Thank you so much! Best gets 10 points!

Answer:

you can try and grease ur points , but if that doesnt work it sounds like either a balljoint, belt tensonir, shocks, struts, springs, tie rod end, sway bar , not sway bar link cause if that was bad ud hear a cling clank noise going over a tiny bump
Throw tons of grease and lube all over the car and see if that fixes your problem if not throw a match on it and watch the pretty colors.
i small container, 10g or so, you can even go with a plastic cage instead of a glass terrarium to save on expensis. Make sure there is plenty of ventilation in the cage, like make sure the top has wire or mesh with a lot of air flow. Use tree bark for the ground, never sand, sand will irritate your tarantula a lot. Put a small water bowl inside although some tarantulas never do drink from their water bowl and just get hydrated through their juicy krickets. yes next feed your tarantula around 5 crickets a week would be fine, some people feed pinky mice to their tarantulas but i think thats a little wierd, only do this if your tarantula is malnourished and you need a quick way to fatten them up :), then move to crickets. make sure and have a place for the tarantula to hide like a hallow rock or coconut shell. yes make sure your cage has a lid becaue the tarantula can crawl up glass fairly easily :). I would definaty purchase a rose-hair tarantula, they are awesome, also try to purchase one from a past owner, like off of craigslist, that way it will have aready been handled a lot and got used to humans, if you do purchase at a petstore make sure the tarantulas have been handled regularly so that you already buy a tame tarantula :). You shouldnt have any problems no getting bitten, the tarantula will usually give you a sign that it doesn't want to be handled before hand before it bites, these signs are lifting up its front legs high in the air in a scary defesive position and also flicking the hairs off of its back/butt withh its hind legs. After purchasing your tarantula give it at least a week to get used to its new surrounding and home before handling, then try to handle you tarantula daily but not for long periods of time so that it stays tame but doesnt get stressed. Hope you have fun with your new pet and good luck!
