Feeding approach
Feed infrequently with prey sized to the spider; log feeding dates, refusal periods, and pre- and post-molt condition.
Weight management
Body weight is not routine; watch abdomen fullness, movement rhythm, and web-building or nesting behavior.
Immunization management
Immunization is not routine; focus on quarantine, dedicated tools, and escape prevention.
Parasite-control management
Parasite and fungal issues tie to humidity, ventilation, and substrate cleanliness—avoid frequent opening that adds stress.
Visit and recording advice
Watch for refusal, failed molts, abdominal shrinkage, or sluggish movement; keep continuous dated observation notes.
Practical points
Use a low-intervention observation sheet that foregrounds timelines and consistent parameters.

Chilean Rose Tarantula
Height: typical leg span about 10 to 13 cm
Weight: weight as a low-frequency reference
Lifespan: about 10 to 20 years(female tarantula )

Height: typical leg span about 10 to 14 cm
Weight: weight as a low-frequency reference
