I had a Rosehair that I handled all the time. I would walk around with her stuck to my shirt. Sometimes I would forget and walk up to people to talk to them. Surprise! Rosehairs are one of the friendliest tarantulas IMO!

If only the pet stores had any worth buying. Every time I see them in pet stores they are all stressed out and missing most of their hair.

I bought mine at the local reptile show.

it was my understanding that handling/disturbing them can stress them out and cause them to shed hairs.

Handling them can stress me out and cause me to shed hairs.

Tonight we put up the Christmas tree.
Tank spent the time wondering the living room.
I'm learning he doesn't like change.
He is getting to be such a big boy.

If he's anything like a garter snake, he might be a bit disturbed at first, then curious about the change and want to investigate. All signs of an intelligent reptile.

Sounds exactly like my girls every time I make a change to their enclosure. We're putting our tree up tomorrow night.
