Dropped Tarantula Carpet 3 Feet

10 weird and wonderful oddities of nature the list.

Dropped tarantula carpet 3 feet. 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. While normally tough enough to protect against minor infractions the tarantula exoskeleton can be described as delicate antique china or even possibly sugar glass. Woo thats wierd lol. Tell me who dropped it mike or him.

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. I dropped my tarantula from about 3 feet his abdomen is not broken and he is not leaking any fluid is he ok. Please try again later. Land based and burrowers apparently do shatter from a drop of 3 4 feet.

Arboreals are better at surviving it though but will still probably kill them. Ideally you should clean and disinfect the terrarium at least once per month. Because the exoskeleton is very fragile if a tarantula is dropped from a low height it will shatter and die. This feature is not available right now.

Rule 3 clean the terrarium regularly. Remove your tarantula from its terrarium and place it in a secure habitat so that it can t escape. If you need to move a tarantula you can do so without touching it. 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.

Next you need to use a 3 bleach cleaner to scrub the terrarium and furnishings before you fill it with new substrate. Pet tarantulas don t require much space so please don t make the mistake of providing a large enclosure. Using a container and a long stick or spoon can move the spider. In fact it takes only a fall of a few inches to cause serious damage to the spider.
