    Dirt Goblin Back at it Again

    After settling into her new enclosure, my T. Albo is burrowing once more. Since these pictures the front part of the log is blocked off with dirt as she has made the back area her main entrance to her new hide.

    New decor

    Got a cork log and sawed it so my T can hide in it or just crawl on it for fun. I also used a dremel on the plastic hide to make the entry wider. It is a coconut since I think she looks like one.

    SOS MITES ALL OVER ENCLOSURES AND OUTSIDE

    Green pea flour will kill them if you sprinkle it in. I have it on hand for my mealworms since I never know if my wheat bran will come with those little guys.

    Somewhat freshly molted Curly Hair

    Disclaimer: I fed her in the second picture a week after she molted for those who may be worried.

    Moving out with my T

    So around the beginning of next year I'm going to be moving from Florida all the way to Washington. This trip will probably take around 3 days, and I have to moved my T. Albo with me obviously. The two options I am thinking of is taking her with me in my vehicle, or possibly shipping her up to a...

    Wolf Spider

    Released him this morning, he got good water and food and now he's back outside where he belongs.

    Decorations

    I want to decorate my new T. Albo enclosure. I'd like to give her something flat to climb on and also maybe add some fake plants. What would you guys suggest?

    Wolf Spider

    Caught this little Wolf Spider in my house. I decided to set up a temporary enclosure because I'm wondering if I might be able to keep it. What do you guys think? In a few days I should be able to move it to an 8 x 8 x 8 in enclosure. I would fill it with eco earth and give it a water dish and...

    New enclosure lid, yes or no?

    Thankfully she doesn't really climb walls, I can't for the life of me find a 12 x 12 x 8 enclosure.

    New enclosure lid, yes or no?

    I understand where you are coming from, but I can't find a shallower box that fits my wants, otherwise ai would've gotten as 12 x 12 x 8.

    New enclosure lid, yes or no?

    Got a new enclosure for my sub adult T. Albo. Of course it came with a mesh lid, and I was wondering if I need to replace it. To he fair though, she doesn't climb up her enclosure and the mesh isn't a fine one I believe. What do you guys suggest?

    Comment by 'TwinkleToes19' in media 'Okay guys, I caught the Tarantula hawk, what now?'

    Now you sit there and keep it contained, good luck soldier. In all reality though, that is really cool!

    US A. Chcolades and G. Pulchra

    I live near Tallahassee, Florida and I've been wanting to expand my collections with an Arizona Blonde (A. Chcolades) and/or a Brazilian Black (G. Pulchra). I currently don't have a lot of money, but I am not picky when it comes to sex, age, or size of a T.

    PLEASE READ

    All you can do is learn from your mistakes, and sometimes accidents happen but I don't think this should stop you from hobbying. All I can suggest is take more precautions and learn to forgive yourself. I'm certain most T owners have made some detrimental mistakes while learning the hobby, so...
