Not a stub. Enclosure sizes, heating, humidity, feeding schedules by life stage, substrate mixes, and the do's and don'ts that actually matter.
Sample guide
Grammostola rosea
Chilean Rose Hair
▾Peek inside
01 - The Enclosure
Adults
40 × 30 cm (16 × 12 in) for a mature adult. This is a large species. Floor space matters more than height.
Slings & Juveniles
House spiderlings in small, appropriately sized deli cups or sling enclosures - oversized enclosures make prey capture difficult. Upgrade roughly every 2-3 moults.
02 - Climate & Environment
Heating
The Chilean Rose Hair is comfortable at 22-26 °C. Most UK homes sit in or near this range for most of the year; heat the room rather than the enclosure if winter drops below it.
Humidity
Grammostola are pampean/chaparral species and famously drought-proof: dry substrate (50-60 %), a water dish, done. Chilean Rose Hair in particular will tolerate a neglected water dish far better than a wet enclosure.
Ventilation
Cross-ventilation is essential - side-vented enclosures, never stagnant. Poor airflow plus humidity kills faster than dryness ever will.
03 - Feeding Schedule
Slings
Every 4-6 days (pre-killed prey - slow species accept less often).
Juveniles
Every 7 days (small crickets or roach nymphs).
Adults
Every 2-4 weeks, seriously. Chilean Roses are the hobby's champion fasters - months off food is normal, and overfeeding is the actual health risk.
