Meet Oscar my new pet

[Catherine]

I am just beginning to know him. I think I can tell if he is hungry. He has eaten right away every time I have fed him. He gets restless when he wants food. Other than that I don't know too much yet.

I think he has grown a little. I must watch for signs of shedding. I understand they are quite vulnerable and don't eat during a shed.

It is easy to love my tarantula. He has orange legs and I like orange. Of course if he wasn't orange I would still love him.
