    Recently rescued a young Mexican Red Knee Tarantula. I moved into a new home and realized I can’t care for it the way I want to. They’ll come with cage, heater, feeding tongs, and cricket cage. Hoping to get $65 for accessories.

    Monitoring B smithi when away from home

    Hi all, Not sure if this is the right place to post this but spent some time rigging up a raspberry pi with a camera and humidity/temp sensor so that I can keep an eye on my first T.
