Feeding method
1, feeding environment
Red rose belongs to a large hairy spider, so it should be provided with a large enough feeding box, which is made of metal or glass, or even ordinary paper boxes. Clean sand or vermiculite of 5 ~10 cm is laid in it, which does not need high humidity, usually around 70%, at least 40%. It must also provide some shelter for it, which can be made of branch bark or coconut shells, and potted plants are arranged inside.
2. Food
Its main foods are crickets, grasshoppers, cockroaches, etc., and occasionally it eats some small lizards, suckling rats or other small animals. Its food intake is small, so it doesn't need to go around looking for food for it, and its hunger tolerance is even more famous in the spider world. It even doesn't need to eat for half a year. As long as there is water, it won't starve to death if it doesn't eat for 100 days. It can usually feed one or two insects for five days in daily breeding.
