Because she loooooooves to dig. She was digging a lot in the corner so I put a hide in there so she could crawl down in there and be sneaky. Now she just dug out from underneath one part of it and kicked a bunch of dirt all over the top of it and is still digging in that corner. I guess to...
Yeah, i know he's not long for this earth. He knows a lot of tarantula people, one may ask him if they know any males of breeding age and he'll let me know. We have an agreement on the m balfouri i got from him if it turns out to be male.
Nah, just got him cuz he was so beautiful and he hooked me up. He had a few of the other "bloom" spiders but this one was by far the most attractive. Plus, the others were a little smaller so they didn't pop with vibrancy as much.
I went back down to my tarantula guy to get some feeder roaches and worms while mine grow up and start reproducing again. Anywho, I can't pass up a good opportunity to buy a new spider, so I picked up a couple new bugs today. I got a freshly mature male p. machala that is absolutely beautiful...
Ok I just went back in and checked and it finally got the roach about am hour and a half later, it was just taking its sweet time. It's still a pretty small spider but as long as it'll eat and grow, im happy. Just had me worried. Maybe when it gets bigger it'll be a bit more voracious.
I swear, aside from one of my itty bitty t albopilosums slings, this is the most anorexic spider I have. Even well before molt it pretty much wouldn't eat. It molted on the 30th of last month and it's abdomen is tiny. Surely this thing is hungry but it refused it's after molt meal and just...
So I'd been thinking I wouldn't mind a bit of a bigger tarantula, one already well established with some size. I went down to my tarantula guy's house today to pick up another t. albopilosum (got 2 itty bitty ones as freebies on my first visit) that is the Nicaraguan variety, and she is quite...
Is it going to bother my tarantulas if i play guitar? I house them in my work office/guitar room and haven't been able to rock in almost a month because i don't know if the vibration from the speakers or whatever is going to stress them out. Plus, i don't think they'd like 80s hair metal, i see...
I think I got word of this app off the Tarantula Collective on Youtube. I've started entering my tarantulas in it today, setting up when I got them, who I got them from, when they were rehoused, fed, etc. Anyone else been using it?
This is pretty exciting for some reason lol My gbb that's roughly the size of a quarter in dls molted! It hadn't really been eating so I kinda figured it may be coming soon but I look in my little enclosure for it today and there's old tarantula skin just laying there and it's standing there...
I dont think i have the patience to build my own or modify aquariums. Im leaning towards a few Exo Terras. Size wise they seem to be cheaper than the other 2 alternatives i mentioned. Plus theres a petco right across the highway from me. I don't think itll be too big a deal to just have...
