Substrate

Image
I've been following a subreddit for tarantula lovers and many people keep saying that owners need to keep putting more substrate into their habitats. I do totally agree that tarantulas need a lot of room for their man cave (burrows) but they definitely do need room to use their webs and more space to actually catch their prey.

Taste of Arachnids

I just tried eating scorpion for the first time a day ago and it was the most disgusting thing I've ever tasted. It was a very small one like 1 inch long and dipped in cheap chocolate. My boyfriend tried the claw, he thought it was ok. I only bit into it once and it was the stinger! I didn't taste the chocolate at all, it was very brittle and crunchy. I can't describe the taste but it was strong like a bunch of chemicals hitting the tongue all at once. My family said if I could withstand the poison that I can endure the Corona virus. This horrible experience makes me scared what a tarantula would taste like but I still will sure give it a try. Maybe not the venomous part first!
