    Hello from Marcy of the Smalls!

    So far, I haven't held any of my spoods! The majority I care for( old world) I wouldn't even begin to consider! But mainly it just stresses out the T.

    Semi- arboreal is good in my world. It aptly describes spoods that will web above ground level into bushes and trees. Works for me!! Lol.

    Something fun!

    Toms great! Another GREAT You Tuber is " Dave's little Beasties". Both are simply awesome!! Both my GBB ladies have ample room in their enclosures and if you have an old world T that acts super feisty a rehouse sometime can do miracles! My female Harpactira Cafreriana benefitted greatly from a...

    Transfer of old enclosure hides, webbing, etc. definitely helps a T's transition. Done it multiple times and the T migrates to the familiar surroundings inside the new! Great for T's to settle them in!!

    Just got my Lampropelma Carpenteri

    My T's were in a couple different places and temps usually run 72 to 74 average before the move to the closed off room. I do think the shyer ones have come out more. Couple I still see rarely though. My big P. Irminia seems out more. By far my 2 most reclusive are my P. Ecclesiasticus and...

    Just got my Lampropelma Carpenteri

    My Phormingochilus Arboricola just blows me away when I catch her out at night! Since I have all my T's in the same room, and I usually keep a steady 77 degrees F. sometimes warmer in the summer, she is out in the day sometimes as well and look similar to L.Carpenteri. Funny my Aspino...

    Who's molted today

    Omothymus Schioedtei! Spider down in the bottom. Re house to follow soon. Spood should be getting close if not beyond the 3" dls mark.

    Nahndu Colloratavillosus pounces!

    The Nahndu Cerradensis last I seen was pricey! This spider had my attention before I started caring for the ones I have (Nahndu's). If possible one day I will get one but might be a minute. Happy Spoodering!

    Should I Be Concerned ?

    Your T could also still be lethargic from the molt. The bigger the T the longer the process, recovery, etc. And as stated above if T is, has ,or about to molt leave them be. It's very important to the T's well being.

    Horned Worms vs Banded Crickets

    I bet the night crawlers were a mess!! Lol I had heard they could be used as a feeder but seems like the mess wouldn't be worth the "squeeze" if you will. The crawlers should be good for moisture content I would think. Great if the T's getting close to molt. Keep rocking them T's!!!!
