Apologies if the pic quality is not good enough, but this was the best I could get. So I noticed this white stuff around my mature male's mouth not long after he ate and I am wondering if it is anything I need to be concerned about, seeing as how I have had him for over 2 years now and I've...

I've now had my mature male, Benny, for just shy of 2 years! ＼( ⁀▽⁀ )／He was already mature when I got him, and for about the past year or so he's been very slowly and gradually losing more and more hairs, which is to be expected of course, but now that the top of his abdomen is getting pretty...

Good to know xD

Ohh wow, so he's mistaking the vibrations around him for a female T then? Thank you for the response! I thought they only did that when a female is around. The most recent time I witnessed it was when I was gonna fill his water dish, and he climbed out of his enclosure and vibrated. Usually...

What a big beautiful girl. My condolences to you and yours

My assumption would be that she's trying to move the leaf because my T has done a similar thing when he tries to move stuff. I could be wrong though!

Hi all! So I've searched around and haven't found anything like what's happening with my tarantula. Basically my mature male has been vibrating often, for a while now. I'm not referring to just the shaky movements that come with old age, nor a "happy dance", nor drumming his pedipalps to a...

beautiful Tliltocatl albopilosus! my favorite species!

Hey your honesty is much appreciated. The "only females or unsexed" thing is such a big red flag for me. I never trust anyone who has "only females or unsexed". I'm sorry to hear this happened to you.

I get way too much entertainment out of watching my tarantula eat!

I could very well be wrong on this, but I'll give you an answer based on my personal experience. So, my T is a curly hair. Due to his long, white curly hairs, he looks much closer to a Nicaraguan than a Honduran, so much so that I initially assumed he was a Nicaraguan. However, a much more...

They can, but you are correct in saying it dilutes the species.

Definitely not Nicaraguan Curly Hair

My mature male is especially suicidal because not only has he stopped eating (which is normal) he also does not drink water (which is the one thing that keeps them alive after they stop eating so I feel like that's not normal). You can lead a mature male to his water dish but you can't make him...

Roaches are the best eaters out of any feeder I've ever kept
