Oscar grows up

[Catherine]

Oscar likes his den. I hoped he would. It is just the right size for him. He can walk in easily and has room to spread out. Those legs of his need plenty of room.

I feel that now that he is in a proper tank and has room to move, I can start to understand him. I know very little about the behavior and personality of a Tarantula.
I think I can tell if he is hungry, maybe. I know to check the water dish is he is hanging around it. I do not know how he drinks. I have seen him eat, but I have never seen him shed.

So much to learn about Oscar. I think he is not fully grown, but I am not sure. He grew so fast this year, but maybe they slow down once they get bigger.
