Wow. Maybe I should reconsider my stance on FB. I've never wanted to do it and never seen a need.

Well that is an awful lot of spiders to take care of. You must feel completely overwhelmed. Just go ahead and send me as many of them as you want to lighten your load. I'll even pay for the shipping. :)

I need to get rid of the red runner colony lol they gross me out im going to try and sell for a dubia colony

I have both. I use the lats for most of my Ts. I only use the dubia for the large adults. The little dubia dig down and hide, while the B. lats run around until they run into the tarantula and get caught. Also, the tiny baby lateralis are perfectly sized for tiny slings.

That's an amazing collection.

Fortunately, Ts aren't all that expensive to maintain. A whole box of 50 crickets is like $5 at PetSmart.

Be a little bit mindful with the OWs. Put their enclosures into a large sterilite tote before doing cage maintenance or pulling out uneaten feeders. Also whenever you have to open up the enclosure.

You'll do just fine. Great collection!!

Don't get rid of the H pulchripes. Hopefully you have a male and a female.

Are you sure #2 is H pulchripes and not another type? It looks a little bit different from the one that is obviously H pulchripes. It might be another Harpactira species. Here's mine.

Wow, to think I missed this because I hate fb so much. Glad it went to a good person though. I’ve never tried red runners but I may take then off your hands if you don’t want them. Congratulations!

Also, its nice to know that there is at least one other tarantula person in the 4th largest city in the nation! I can’t believe there aren’t more people in such a big city.
