I use to keep snakes but fancy this chilean rose spider in shop, are spiders good pets,any experiance?
I used to have a Rose hair i miss him very much. They are realtivley easy to maintain. Don't put them in direct sun. They will eat pinkie mice on occasion and it is good for them to have them on occasion. Mine prefered water off the side of his tank he would not drink from a lid from a bottle.make sure to change the bedding out once a month to not let mold grow. als if youfind it on its back IT IS Not dead it is molting. Shedding it exoskelton just leave it be and remove all live food from the enclosure. Don't feed it for a couple of weeks after that. They are very delicate at this point. It is best not to handle them they are more fun to watch them to put at risk holding them.
There ok but are very fragile and are not really keen on alot of handling.plus you need to be confident to handle them.apart from that they are very easy to keep.
A spider's not a reptile! Why are you asking this question in this section?!
