Hi all

I am interested in finding out a bit more about Red Knees and/or Pink Toe T's.
I am interested in keeping one and have never kept tarantulas before only snakes and lizards.

Could you please list enclousure size, humidity, temp, feeding i.e. food type, amount...habitat/layout and any other info that will be useful.

Cheers

thay are both quite straight forward but seeing as the red knee has been covered il say about the pink toe. being aboreal they like somewhere to climb I find two pieces of bark stood on there end so theres a crack for them to get in works well, they will go inside and build a web, they like high humidity 80%+ so just spray the tank every couple of days, temps at 25-30c offer food twice a week, appropriately sizes crickets.

not really, but you would be surprised at how big a cricket they can take in comparison to their bodies, I would say though about the same size as their carpace.
