New Velvet owner; humidity question
I'm bringing home a Orange faced velvet (Eresus sp "balcanicus") today and have been running into a tiny bit of trouble setting up her enclosure.
I have corkbark, sand and soil mix (Biodude bioactive substrate), and dry moss. I left a temperature gage in the terrarium overnight and the humidity is reading over 70-80%... Everything is bone dry and I'm using a tarantula crib house w/canopy; which is what I've seen be used for a velvet spider set up before from a reputable source.
Is the humidity or the substrate I'm currently using something I should be concerned about?
I'm ruling out the temperature gage as being faulty so I ordered a new one specifically for animal enclosures hoping that will be more accurate.
But I'm just not 100% clear on if humidity of any kind will be fatal- or just give no water misting and she'll be good to go.
I appreciate any feedback; there's not a lot of solid information a available for these cuties yet and I just want to make sure she has the best quality of life possible!
