Thank you very much. I will put in much more substrate.

Thank you very much. I will keep the enclosure a little more moist, and get back to you here.

Yes, although I don't always keep the cage humid, as I get concerned about the spider fungal infection. Sometimes I allow the dish (and cage) to get dry. Is this the problem? I usually keep humidity at 40% to 70%.

Thank you. I will shortly.

Hi guys. I'm very worried about my Colombian Redknee, which I've had for about three years. Her opisthoma seems to be shrinking, and her behavior has become more lethargic. I keep the cage at a temp around 70° -75° F, I mist the cage (and have a humidity guage), which keeps it from 40% to 70%...

For God's sake, don't let it sting you. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://undark.org/2016/05/18/tarantula-hawk-wasp-sting-pain/&ved=2ahUKEwiMj8DAisT_AhV4STABHVxnCVoQFnoECBUQAQ&usg=AOvVaw1cG_mjN6cNHyZ569798Svd It hurts like nothing else.

Thank you.

I might consider raising and cultivating them from wild stock.

I looked up the red runner, and it seems that is is already established in Florida. It does say that it now occurs in South Carolina . . . so I'm betting it's in Florida.

As I said, I'm not technologically sophisticated, and couldn't figure out how to get the camera to focus and magnify properly. I am an older person who struggles with using computers.

I'm not sure. I don't know what redrunners are. A species of roach?

No luck. Just back and forth about how I didn't send a photo when the spiderling was too small to get a good picture (I'm older, and I struggle with computers). I was nicely conned, and there doesn't seem like a lot I can do about it.

Thank you.

It's 2 hours. I made first phone call within 2 hrs., and was told to call back in an hour by Vlad. Then I was outside the 2 hr. window.

Thank you both.
