    Acanthoscurria Geniculata Kiwi Butt Bald Spot: Pre-molt or Kick Spot?

    Woke up this morning to see the bald spot on Ziggy on his kiwi butt. There is also a smaller patch further up too. His last molt was on 07/05/24 so I'm thinking it's way too early for another pre-molt. He's approx 9cm and I know they grow fast, but not this fast?? He did take a cricket only...

    White Mark on Acanthoscurria Geniculata Kiwi Butt?

    There seems to be some white marking on my Acanthoscurria Geniculata's butt. Is this something to be concerned about? Or is it an early sign of pre-molt? Sorry if the photos aren't too clear - my iPhone always blurs the picture if I'm up close for some ridiculous reason.

    Sudden death of A. geniculata, ideas?

    I sadly lost my Acanthoscurria geniculata female earlier today, After hours of mourning and crying, because damn she was one of my first tarantulas and I'm so sad to lose her, I'm trying hard to think of reasons.

    Hi there, everyone! My name's Rebecca. Just joined this forum today, and I'm very happy to meet fellow tarantula enthusiasts.

    Acanthoscurria Geniculata Buried for a long time!

    Hey legends, So I collected my juvenile Geniculata on the 20th December. She moved into her new home, had a good wander about, then buried herself completely under a root. She is still there with no signs of movement. I'm getting worried now. How long do I leave her? Should I try to peek in...

    Amateur Macro Shots - Acanthoscurria geniculata slings

    Threw the cheap macro lens adaptor on my phone and took a few photos of my whiteknee slings. Quite a short focal range on it. Planning to do some focus stacking in the future to try and capture all of the deltails. Need to invest in a macro lens for my DSLR now that I have something tiny to...

    Acanthoscurria geniculata slings in their new pots

    Just transferred my Whiteknee slings to a new pot (bit early but wanted to see them clearer without disturbing them) and thought I'd take a couple shots. They're invert viewing pots, so have a magnifying lid, which is quite nice for seeing all their little details. They're out of direct light...
