I found this sling in Sunflower Arizona almost a year ago and im still having trouble trying to find out what he might be. Someone have any suggestions?
Alright so I have been searching and searching for a Cyriopagopus Minax or Thailand Big Black T and for the life of me I cant find one. If anyone knows someone or has one they would like to get rid of I would gladly pay for the T. This is probably my all time favorite T and I am dying to have...
I'm a new tarantula keeper and I need help deciding on which species I should get for a beginner,here are some on my list:
Brachypelma hamorii (red knee)
Grammostola rosea (red rose hair)

Hi everyone, my name is nick and I’ve been keeping tarantulas and any insects for as long as I can remember and when I turned 10 I bought my very first tarantula which was a Chilean Rose tarantula. I’ve had for 5 years now and just recently noticed that it started to deny any food I gave it and...
I suck at sexing younger molts. I don't own a microscope anymore and don't want to wait a year for them to get big enough for me to know the gender of my T.
I suspect Sing is a girl but wanted extra eyes.
Well... I figured since there seems to be debate and people have certainly get heated. While others cheer them on, I thought it would be a great topic of discussion.
What is too moist?
Should I dry out my slings?
Should I dry out my enclosures while my tarantula's are molting?
Should I...
Telle is a stromatopelma calceatum and dubbed my forever sling. She's growing so much slower, it's painful. Other than that, a giant treat to see her out. Must have missed her border patrol.
Happy is a Psalmopoeus Reduncus. I love her so much! Well it's not confirmed through molt since she destroyed most of it, waiting for another to look at but it to confirm my suspicions. She's probably one of my relaxed babies, up there with Izzy.
I've had Spoodle since they were super tiny. One of my first slings I ever owned so they have a special spot with me. I rehoused them two weeks ago and have not seen them since. I'll give it another week before pulling up their bark. I know heterothele villosellas are known for being nervous.
Houdini when he was so tiny! Had to change him from his dixie cup to a maggot container. He was known for getting out through the thin lip of his first enclosure and would always... ALWAYS make a line for my plants. So this is six days into his new home. After the move, no escapes. :3
A couple of weeks I did a rehouse of my little escape artist. He's growing like a weed so I assume, for a dwarf that he's a boy but we'll see after he molts. If you all can't tell, he's my one and only hapalopus columbian large species.
And yes I've asked for a macro camera for xmas.
Legs disappeared 33 days ago and reemerged on the second of December. She has not molted yet. I am, however, concerned.
First concern, odd behavior: doesn't want to eat but drinks tons (for a spood) of water. Today and yesterday, that's all she has done. Not moving much but constantly...
So ever since I got my grammastola pulchra as a 1/4 inch sling, she's raises her abdomen high up and down and up and down every time she walks. She's an inch large now and still does it. It kinda looks like she's dancing whenever she walks. She doesn't do it all the time, only when she walks and...
