I did the most research i could in the time i had. It was more of a rescue type of situation. I felt i could care for this snake more than the person who had it. I knew a little about spiders but i admit i shouldve known more before i got him. So thank you for everyone that was helpful and nice enough to give a helpful answer rather than get mad that i had a pet that i "didnt research enough". I guess to those people it mightve been better to just let the snake suffer without care...
