Set up and verify the enclosure is fully prepared and environmental conditions are stable before unpacking. A minimum 10-gallon enclosure is recommended for juveniles, with larger habitats as they grow. Gently place the tarantula in the enclosure and allow 24-48 hours to settle. Keep the area calm and quiet, and avoid handling during this time to help the animal adjust comfortably to its new environment.
