Grammostola grossa

Need caresheets about that T, cant find any.

I am keeping her at 27 celsius and aprox 65% humidity at the moment but that is just my guess.

Does anybody know how big they can get?

i think most Grammostola caresheets are VERY similar, just bone dry substrate, with a nice waterdish, and probably 5-6" max size, maybe 7"

I dont know about bone dry because pulchras need about 75%

I keep mine bone dry and overfill the waterdish once a week
if the substrate is any wetter, they will cling to the sides of the enclosure till it dries out

I have four rosies, my largest is appox 6inch, but I dont think she has finished growing yet Smile

I keep mine bone dry, and overflow the water dish every 2 weeks, any more and they climb to get away from it. I keep them at 80ºF and 50-60% humidity. I have a MM that is 5" and my MF who is gravid is 5.5". I feed them once a week and are doing fine, just waiting on this sac, which could still be awhile.

I heard that a guy from Denmark who is a breeder had a grossa 0.1 with a legspann of 23cm and died at the age of 20.

I wish you luck with that sack Basketball
