They are quite different to handle compared to my terrestrials, but still are pretty sweet :). They walk (or sprint lol) so lightly!

Jeez, she must be old! That a HUGE time difference between molts. Probably even the first time I ever heard of a T molt 5 years later:P; then again I kinda drifted away from the other T forums:oops:.

Keep them very humid! Especially with avicularia and especially when they're young, humidity is VERY important to keep them hydrated. What's your setup like for the little guy?

I just moved him into a small-ish plastic container with small holes in it, and a piece of wood to take up some room in it... he was in a small vile that he came in from the store.

Try to keep humidity high by dribbling a bit of water down the side of the container. That serves 2 purposes: offers extra air humidity, and allows the spider to drink up the droplets that form on the wall. Has he eaten for you yet?
