I am somewhat interested in getting one.

However, I don't know much about them, I have a question or two.

How are these to handle, also are their venomus? I guess I should just do a google search

 

[carpetsnake]

how old r they

 

[nook171]

yes they are venomous chris

 

[Chris89]

yes they are venomous chris

I thought so, if I were to get one.. I really don't think I'd be handlying it that'd probably freak me out some. But to look at would be ok, but however if it ever did escape a shoe would be in order. lol :lol:

 

[hornet]

they are not dangerously venomous, yes they hurt when they bite but wont do you any real damage, also handling is not a good idea with aussie t's as they tend to bite

Do you need a license?

 

[cuddlykylie]

no u dont need a licence woodyb

 

[rigga]

How big a tank would you need for an adult ? Would 24" L x 12" D x 18" H suffice ?
And finally how do you handle them, when changing substrate etc ?

 

[Snow1369]

what are there requirments, i'm relli thinking about getting some now? (i.e do they need heat what kinda substrate what there eating and anything else useful)

 

[Adandiluvsmyreptiles]

Rigga - that's plenty of size!! Heaps in fact!
I sent u a pm regarding handling etc
