Dubia roaches. I started a colony because they all love them. But they will also eat crickets and just about anything they can get ahold of.

Damn she looks raggedy from behind… molt coming soon!

Just a little ass-scratching after digging up the new plant that Hooman dared to put in here.

I feel like an alchemist mixing substrate…. “A hefty bit of top soil.. I must continue to toil Add some coco to the mix A healthy dirt is on me to fix Now a handful of clay If I may Sprinkle it with springtails Because mold comes without fail Now The mix is complete And it’s Perfect for tiny...

All my brachys are massive eaters. So much so I have to limit their food sometimes cuz I don’t think they will be able to drag that fat bum around!

She is in her little cork round. She is looking good, a little stressed but she has just been moved. I think we will be ok! It’s always a comfort to know I can here with my panic modes and youse all manage to calm me down! Thank you all!

Oooo those vinagaroons! First time I ever saw one was in the mojave and it was crawling across my floor. I captured it thinking I had an Alien baby in a jar!

It does often take a week or even a few before they feel like it’s home. Don’t stress yet, she sounds like she is deciding if she really wants to be aboreal or not :)

I needed to rehouse several of my babies today. I decided to do the rehouse on my versicolour, Lizzie. Set up the new tank, loving it. Brought Lizzie in to move her. Her web is so thick you can barely see her shadow through it. I separated her web from her enclosure, she stayed in her web, and...

O my goodness. If you found this upsetting don’t go over to arachno boards! In regards to behavior… yep … I rarely see mine. She has a beautiful web and she stays behind closed doors. Seems to be the norm for OW I think….

Hi! Welcome to a whole new world! You picked one of my favorites. The Brachy (red knee) is a striking looking T and so relaxed. This is the best new keeper T IMO. Any questions or problems we are here for you!

I really appreciate the answer! I won’t use it then and will stay with reptisoil to mix up. I can use the bag to fill a hole in my yard instead. Didn’t think anything that smelled like **** should be in my tank! Thanks again!

I’ve never used top soil as part of my substrate mix before. I decided to take the plunge and got earthgro topsoil as shown by several people to be a good safe bet. HOWEVER it smells like manure. I’m not confident about using this if it has poop in it. Is it ok or nay??

It was AWESOME!! Penelope brought Tyler a present, a tin of tarantula basics, and he said he was going to buy that same one later that week. Do that was awesome as well!

But really… if you can tell, tell me please?
