Many thanks for your reply's, did'nt know they scavenged.

My guess at the T's size is 3-4mm leg span so really tiny, and my feeders for all my other T's are medium black crickets,

A bit worried here i have just bought a new addition to my collection, a Nhandu chromats, it has arrived but its so small all my normal feeders are way to big. So what i would like to know is what do i feed it?

At the end of the day guy's its a spider, I love it because it keeps me occupied, does'nt argue back, and best of all it keeps her indoors away!!!!! So whatever species it is, who cares,

Thank you for telling me about the name change, What really amazes me is how fast people get hooked on this bloody hobby, i've now fallen for a Mexican red knee, got loads of info on it and already sorted an enclosure, but cannot find one here in the uk, all the local dealers are saying try...

ok i'll take your word for it, i just repeated what he wrote down.

HI, yes it was 29c in there with the light on, he recommended no more than 20c-25c room temp, i now have t at 22c

Hi Dave, to answer your question, its definately a Tarantula i asked mike my local expert round today, he has handled it and this is his verdict, he has said ts hard to tell excactly due to its juvenile size, but to him it looks like its a Grammostola aureostriata Chaco Golden Knee Tarantula...

I'm not worried by it, i've had it on my hand few times, its that i dont get to see it, as t spends at least 80% of the time under ground, i'm using just a webcam mounted inside the tank

This is a better pic, she's tunneled from the hide under the water bowl and along the front of the enclosure, she's also webbed up the entrance of the tunnel.

managed to grab a pic, not a real good one but best I can get for now.

more T's it is then

Thanks LC question is, what do I love most? T's or her in doors

Hello, now you tell me its addictive, I've just bought my second T, a Antillies pink toe spiderling, The one that came with the flat is about an inch leg span, brown colour, with white stripes on its knees, sorry I cant get a photo because its always under ground, but when I do i'll post a pic...

Hi my name is Gary, and i'm completely new to this hobby, I got into it by complete accident, my spider was in a glass jar in a cupboard when I moved into my bedsit. I know nothing about it not even what species but I love it and have enjoyed watching it for the last month building its...
