My juvenile T has been frequently climbing up into a little corner/nook in its enclosure for the past week or so. It has been fed however about 3 weeks ago I moved it. Should I be worried?

I'm new to the hobby and thought I had enough substrate to compensate for any potential falls. My 1.25" G. Pulchra has either a wet spot or a pre-molt spot on top of its abdomen and I can't tell perfectly because its hiding in its home and all I can do is look with my red flashlight. I've...

Currently I have it in the corner (I don't overflow the water dish, I manually make another corner wet.) Should I move the water dish closer to it's hide? I guess I'm just concerned it isn't finding the water. I never see it leave its hide, but I know it's eating the pre-killed crickets I leave...

Hello, I have my first Tarantula (Grammostola Pulchra), and my main concern has been how much I should be wetting the substrate at a size of 1.25". I know they don't like much and should be essentially dry as adults. Am I nearing the stage that I can relax a bit more on watering? I've been...

I’m new to this and don’t know where to post for advice/help…i think my 17 y/o Rose Hair Chilean Tarantula Is either sick, dying or severely dehydrated. I don’t think she’s molting (even though she hasn’t molted in over a year) and I’m not sure if she’s eaten recently. I gave her crickets last...

Hey yall, I have a female Chilean rose hair tarantula who is about 12 years old. She molted about two or three months ago, and I have just noticed she has a small growth on her abdomen. (Pictured below). I just wanna make sure that this is not a fungal infection or something dangerous for her...

Hi. My Avic Avic hasn’t eaten since it ate a big juicy dubia roach 3 weeks ago (was eating well before then). Not moving around its enclosure, been in that spot a while (previously would go on little adventures). I’m noticing more webbing appearing. I assume this is all signs of premolt? Any...

Hi. My Avic Avic hasn’t eaten since it ate a big juicy dubia roach 3 weeks ago (was eating well before then). Barely moving around its enclosure, been in that spot a while (previously would go on little adventures). I’m noticing more webbing appearing. I assume this is all signs of premolt? Any...

Hello guys, the name is Renee. I have been a tarantula keeper now for I don’t know maybe 10 years since my son decided to rescue who we called “grandpa”, a beautiful Grammostola Portieri. As I was nervously searched how to care for a tarantula and read a thousand different threads we found a...

This is Bluey, my cobalt blue. Theyre an unsexxed juve around 7cm diam. They have never molted and theyve eaten 4 times since i got them in march (going by behaviour + abdomen size to know when feeding is needed) Through the past couple of weeks ive seen them go whiter and whiter and now...

Can someone tell me if its male or female? Is it even possible to tell yet?

Heya! I have a quick wee question; I've found little white things in clumps on the sides of my GGB's enclosure. I would write them off as eggs if it wasn't for the fact that my GGB is a juvenile and they're not in an eggsac. If someone could help me identify what I'm looking at, I'd be super...

Hello, my name is bea! I’m new to the site, as well as new to tarantulas. I’ve mostly kept reptiles and isopods my entire life, and for the first time I’ve had a reptile mite infestation break out while I was away for 2 weeks. I’ve come home to my worst nightmare. I know how to handle the...
