The other problem is that sapo was on strike end of feb, we all know that parcels sent through the post has the possibility of getting lost or being man handled. Especially during a strike when parcels are left together in big piles waiting for speed services to deliver them.
Did your sling recover yet or is he still curled up?

The tissue paper was dry when I received the t, there was no signs of it even being wet. Unfortunately it did not survive. It was a Brazillian red and white

Thanks for all the replies

And sorry for the late reply, been very busy. Have a nice set up for my slings. Currently have a new Brazilian red and white, a Curly hair and a Chaco golden knee (not clued up on their scientific names yet)

Hi Ashton.

Check out the Tarantupedia if you get stuck, or else your good buddy Mr. Google.
Don't worry, you will get the hang of the names in no time.

Brazilian red and white -- Nhandu chromatus
Curly hair -- Brachypelma albopilosum
Chaco golden knee - Grammostola pulchripes. Was my first T also. Great guys !!

Welcome and enjoy the forum !!

The Grammostola pulchripes is an awesome tarantula, very active!
