Housing
- Enclosure: A small, secure container such as a plastic vial, deli cup, or small terrarium with ventilation holes is ideal for a sling of this size. The enclosure should be relatively small to ensure the sling doesn't struggle to find its food.
- Substrate: Use a moisture-retaining substrate like coconut fiber or peat moss. The substrate should be kept slightly moist (not wet) and about 2-3 inches deep to allow for burrowing.
- Humidity: Maintain a humidity level of around 60-70%. This can be achieved by misting the enclosure lightly every few days. Avoid over-misting to prevent mold growth.
- Temperature: A temperature range of 18-25°C (64-77°F) is suitable for Grammostola rosea, which is tolerant of a wide range of temperatures. Room temperature is often adequate without the need for additional heating.
Feeding
- Diet: Feed your Chilean Rose sling small prey items such as pinhead crickets, flightless fruit flies, or small roaches once or twice a week. Ensure the prey is not larger than the sling's abdomen.
- Water: At this size, the sling will obtain most of its moisture from its food. You can also lightly mist one side of the enclosure to provide water droplets for the sling to drink, ensuring not to overdo it.
General Care
- Molting: Your sling will molt several times as it grows. During molting, it may refuse food and become more sedentary. Increase humidity slightly during this time and refrain from feeding until a couple of days after the molt to allow the new exoskeleton to harden.
- Handling: It's advisable to minimise handling to reduce stress on the tarantula. If necessary, use a soft brush or gentle scoop method for moving the sling during enclosure maintenance.
Social Needs
- Grammostola rosea tarantulas are solitary and should be kept alone. They do not require or benefit from interaction with other tarantulas.
