Just like with tortoises, I'm discovering there are conflicting opinions on humidity and ventilation in the tarantula world.
On one side of the debate, people say to cover the enclosure lid to help maintain humidity.
On other side, people say they need the open top because stagnant and stale air is bad for them.
Sound familiar?
It gets hard to know which side to believe. I've asked my question on Josh's tarantula forum, too. But I figure those here that keep Ts and already understand the myth of stale air for tortoises, might be able to tell me if it's applicable to the Ts or not.
@Tom you've kept T. Do you have open screen lids?
