I wonder if anyone has any experience of moving tarantulas about between countries? Not importing wild caught spiders from their native country, but moving captive bred pets around.
I'm living in the Republic of Ireland but I'll be moving back to the UK sometime next year, and what I don't know is if I'll have any problems with customs? And do I need to prepare for this? I've tried to find out from the various government agencies involved in such things, but with no luck.
Reluctant as they are to give out any useful information, or even correct information, I know from experience (with plants) that if you fail in your mind-reading attempts and get it wrong, they won't be impressed!
(For those who may have read my previous posts about my bad luck with my first spider, I now have a small-but-getting-fatter T. blondi
and a very small Brachypelma verdezi. They look so much healthier than my first spider so I don't think they're going to die on me.)
