    Tarantula slings

    I read it on here to lop the head off a small cricket and toss it in. I've been doing that. Last evening I put a headless cricket near my sling while it was out prowling. That night, it was pulled nearly under the water dish where the sling hides. This morning it was "gone". There may be...

    Help Grammostola SP. Maule Acting weird

    It may be just the change. It had gotten used to the ground it had, and you just changed its whole world. Maybe it'll settle down once it gets used to it. If it takes more than a week, go back to what you were using, provided there was nothing wrong with that product.

    Not to thread jack mindburner, but... So I put my little smaller than a dime T in a 10 gal vivarium. That's what I'm keeping it in, so that's what I put it in. I've read where people put them in smaller keeps because: 1. Easier to keep track of. I can see that being a benefit. I can't find the...

    DOOM

    I don't game much anymore, but I too have gone console. Less tech to keep up with. I don't get to do all the cool custom stuff, like custom UIs or top hats on mud crabs, but I don't have to worry with system reqs, either.

    My inverts (mostly tarantulas)

    Wow! Gorgeous Amblypygid (tailless whip scorpion). I was so tempted to get one. Just didn't feel comfortable ordering online, not having experience with mail order pets. Where'd you get yours? It'll be a while before I get another pet. Wanna get settled in with my new T first. I see you have a...

    Pet Rock?

    It's been years, but when we had a large rose hair, it was a calm T. We didn't hug up on it like a stuffed animal, but we would encourage it to crawl into our hands now and then. It never bit. Never flicked. It would even crawl all over us. Thing to watch was jumping. Twice, it nearly jumped...

    Hi. I too have a new "sling". A Chilean rose hair. This is the smallest T I've ever had. It's smaller than a dime. It's the T in my avatar. Awesome! I get to really see it grow. In the past (last century) a small one for me was silver dollar size. That was big enough to feed small to mediumish...

    New Cobalt Blue from Petco

    I see this is from 2015. It cam up in a search on "petco". My dad and I had a cobalt in the 1990s. Bought it at an independent pet shop. Man! That thing was ferocious! Very cool to watch. Not so cool to handle.
