    Overeating concern!

    Ugh!! My A. genic molted so I finally feed it after the fangs hardened. I decided to feed it a waxworm that seemed on the smaller side in the container but once it was in the enclosure and started crawling I realized how big it was. In typical A genic fashion, it was pounced on in no time...

    Anyone in Pittsburgh looking for a mature GBB?

    Thanks! Glad to see there are some other keepers from Pittsburgh in the forum! Hopefully I can find a female soon. I might take him to the reptile and exotic pet show in Cheswick next month to see if a vendor might be interested in a trade.

    Anyone in Pittsburgh looking for a mature GBB?

    My GBB just molted in December as a mature male. I am not into breeding but wanted to see if anyone in Pittsburgh PA is looking to "borrow" my mature male for a date with a GBB lady. Not looking to split an egg sac or looking for money. Honestly, if everything goes well, I would like just a...

    hornworm after molt yummy1

    This was the first time I feed my T one. This was a week after he molted. I figured they are very soft bodied and it helps to plump them up a bit.

    LP or A Genic enclosure question

    Is this enclosure large enough to keep an adult Lasiodora parahybana or an Acanthoscurria geniculata? It is the Zoo Med low profile 6 gallon tank. Same floor space as a 10 gallon tank just not as tall. The dimensions are 10.25 IN L X 20.75 IN W X 8.25 IN H

    Genic vs LP vs GBB for first tarantula

    I recently got all 3. They all make great display T’s because they get large and are usually out of their hides (Some GBBs not as much as the other two but their striking color makes up for that when they do hang out in the open). I recently got my GBB and it a male and just molted. Is has yet...
