Listen "192: The Basics of Tarantula Care | Marshall Arachnids - AAH"

Episode Synopsis

In this episode, we are joined by Ryan of Marshall Arachnids. Ryan and his partner Jess run Marshall Arachnids, and they are focused on promoting a natural history-based captive husbandry for tarantulas. Ryan and Jess are focused on adding the elements of husbandry back into tarantula care that we find in the wild, such as heating, lighting, photo periods, misting and rain cycles, and humidity/temperature drops. If you're somebody who either keeps tarantulas or wants to get into tarantula keeping, this will be a very powerful episode for you.
