Hello, all! It is with great reluctance that I have to rehome my tarantulas, Galadriel and Tauriel. Galadriel's future is already secured, but Tauriel needs a new home. The only reason I am rehoming is because I am moving, and the new place does not allow even the (frankly, laughable) venom of...

Once my little hard-hat miners return to the surface, I will do a bedding change and soak it in saltwater. I'll keep you posted!

I love you forever. Thank you so much!

Three of my guys are currently burrowed, leaving Fred (the boring one, of course) on top. Their habitat is so boring right now lol. I know Lucy was ready to molt- Ricky and Ethel are just being dumb lol. Can't even do a bedding change right now because of all that. I can't even do saltwater on a...

I agree. I always stress to my customers how they're not throw-away pets. I show them my setup and pass on my knowledge. Doesn't always work, but I try. I even refuse to sell crabs sometimes when they don't have everything they need.

Sorry, I'm actually not going to be able to take it. My landlord is deathly afraid of scorpions, and even though I tried to explain that I am as well and, despite being a "whip scorpion", it isn't a scorpion, he put his foot down. Sorry :(

Alright, I will do a bit more research on the species and let you know ASAP (probably tomorrow). I'll probably have to have it shipped first to my coworker, as FedEx would have to leave the package on my apartment doorstep if I'm not here, and that's just not a wise idea, with the part of town I...

Gotcha. Thanks! What is the furthest it is wise to ship them? I'm out in Ohio and don't know if they'd make it that far or if it's safe to attempt.

How old is it, and what gender?

Haha cuuute. Reminds me of how I introduce people to pictures of my spooders. "Hey, wanna see my small fluffers? They've got big buck teeth, they're soft and fuzzy, and cute little eyes. About the size of a hamster. See?" -internal screaming commences-

I have the large version of that tank for my royal python, Nagini! :3 So, one /can/ put a lot of decor with tarantulas? Everything I've ever seen for terrestrial species has always been very bare and depressing. Only reason I never got a tarantula before now. But if I can spruce it up a bit...

Yes, yes, I know. Wimpy "beginner" pet. I kibda go overboard on mine. I got four- Lucy, Ricky, Fred and Ethel. Anyone else here look beyond the stereotype of them being a boring pet for kids? Attached is my terrarium.

Hey, there! I just acquired a Mexican fireleg as a re-home that I was told is female, but seems to be male. I'm hoping it is female, of course, but I will love the little snugglebug either way.

Hello, all! I recently got an Arizona desert blonde named Galadriel who is in pre-molt (losing hairs on her osthosoma). The breeder who gave her to me said she is definitely fasting, so I haven't fed her. I was wondering how long after the molt I need to wait for the new exoskeleton to harden...

It's a bit dirty because I forgot it belonged to my hermit crabs, so hard water marks on the glass, but here. She seems to fit nicely, light is limited, and it's a heavy wire grate top.
