It is so interesting that two different tarantulas can have the opposite behaviors. My lady Chaco Golden Knee rarely goes into her hide. casually showing off her beauty as she meanders around her enclosure. THEN, there is my Arizona Blonde. Webbed all openings in its enclosure and stopped...

It molted last night! I am leaning on it being a Male. What do you think? Also the picture of front lags. Are those "hooks"? That would confirm. They are so tiny. Let me know

True, However, it is webbed inside its own small hide. It cannot get to its water or food.

I have an Arizona Blonde that was caught in the wild. It has not molted since getting it. I also have a Chaco Golden Knee that I purchased as a sling and have watched it molt several times. It measures about 4" foot to foot. The issue I am having is with the Arizona Blonde. In its enclosure...

I was finally able to confirm Slinky, my Chaco Golden Knee is a female after a beautiful molt. YES!

I had a very active super chill tarantula. I believe it was a Tucson Bronze male. I had it several months and was eating great. During its first molt while I had it I saw it had a parasite of some kind. It was very sad to watch. It looked like a scene out of Alien. It did not survive. The...

What would you say from looking at my Arizona Blonde? Hoping for a female. Aren't we all? This is a wild caught specimen at my friend's house here in Arizona, SE of Phoenix. It was in a cave live valve enclosure. It had been there for some time since there was a molt in the enclosure.

I used to live in Walnut Creek. Northgate 81'. I just added a wild caught Arizona Blonde to my Chaco Golden Knee female. I live in AZ SE of Phoenix.

I can't wait until it molts again.
