What 'exotic pets' did u get 2 days ago?....
well,i'm still a newbie in tarantula,this is my 2nd try.For the 1st time,i tried with Costa Rica Zebra sling,only manage to keep it for 3month.cost me Rm45 ...
Now my 2nd try,still the same T sp. and sling.But i bought 3 slings from exoreptiles for only RM25 each.Still having it for about a year already.In my own oppinion,i will suggest to try from slings and a beginner sp. because u can learn from experience how the T grow from sling to adult.
I'll post my T later in another section....

Hopefully you can grow a villosa in there.

I notice that my fridge humidity is below 50% on daytime(lights on) and around 75% on nighttime(lights off).Should i install a humidifier/fogger inside my fridge to increase the humidity?

Nope,those are not VFTs....i'll give a hint,look at the pots plant label...

one tip on increasing the humidity,have a tray of water in the fridge with some pebbles in the tray.

From my observation,the humidity increases when i put in my mini styrofoam box greenhouse.

But mine isnt subjected to cold temp so i wont know how the humidity will be when face with cold temp.so u should try it
