    Needed some help identifying this T sling. Any ideas or informations anyone?

    Looks like Thrixopelma, could be cyaneolum, but I'd contact the seller to make sure.

    A whole new world.

    I'm pretty sure emperor scorps live in the old world ;) :p Feeding prekilled might work better because it might be settling in from the move, if it doesn't eat you can take it out and try again later.

    Yeah, mature males aren't the greatest eaters, they focus more on mating than eating.

    Eating in pre-molt?

    Nothing to worry about, species that especially like to eat a lot have been seen eating and molt a day or two after.

    Does molting get rid of internal parasites

    I would think no, as molting would only remove the skin, not everything inside as well. Here is a thread of when my G pulchra sling got infected with nematodes, even after it molted and ate post molt in my care. https://arachnoboards.com/threads/nematodes-on-g-pulchra-sling.356297/ It could have...

    Babies!!!

    In my experience, I just left them in there with mom, and they were doing fine. I would give the mom a quite sizable roach and she would grab it and pinch it for a while before giving it to the scorplings. I would then give her another roach for herself. She did a pretty good job taking care of...

    Brachypelma Boehmei Leaking?

    Sometimes, when tarantulas groom themselves, they spill droplets of cleaning fluid, many keepers just see random droplets of water here and there, but it's completely normal.

    Help with poor molt position!

    Sorry, but it looks more like a death curl than the molting position. Does it have access to water? You can try putting its mouthparts in the water bowl to try to hydrate it. Hoping for the best.

    H gigas, kind of like an OW Theraphosa.

    A question frequently asked about OBTs.

    In my experience, my two 1.5 inch obts have about 3-4 inches of sub and both nearly dug to the bottom, maybe it just varies by the individual.

    Is that black circle a missing leg?

    If a leg is damaged, they can close off a valve to stop blood flow, and detach the leg from their body. Otherwise it should grow back in a few molts.

    Is that black circle a missing leg?

    Is this the same spider you showed in that review of a seller from morphmarket with it fighting the T albo? If so the albo probably got the leg.

    It is too dang hot here.

    It was triple digits for the past 2 weeks here in Socal, and now it says it's going to be raining on the weekend.

    Please be molting

    Looks more like it was walking around upside down.

    Trying to find out what my tarantula is

    Auratum has a more darker red coloration on the knees, smithi and hamorii are more orange. The pattern on the knee of auratum looks like lips with lipstick on, smithi and hamorii have it covering the whole knee area.
