Neith eating and setting trip wires.

[AlyeskaWolf]

My Rosie is voracious and soooo fun to watch. <3 First 2 images are slightly blurry sorry. She has been looking and behaving splendid! Grows more beautiful by the day. AND for those who know, she stopped climbing the tank walls!!!! Worry gone. I did raise the substrate too anyways, just in case...

Can see a cricket butt sticking outta her mouth, hahaha.

Also: I have good video of her setting up her trip wires...going to try and upload that next or soon.

Nice pics! Cute Rosie! I love watching mine lay her traps down too its really neat. I see you have a sponge in your water dish, remove it immediately! T's don't need it and it will just grow bad bacteria in your enclosure.

She is soooo pretty.

WHAT. You know your my girl, hahaha, but Ive had like 20 people tell me to make sure I use a sponge. Like...I always hear and read to use them, this is honestly the first time ever I was told not to. Even in T books.

She right on the sponge it just grows things you dont want. They do fine with out them just keep the water where when she stands in it she is above the water.

LOL people told me the same thing girl, and finally when I posted a pic of my T on here and Kenny auctually saw the sponge and told me to remove it because of bacteria growing, I said the same thing you did. But yeah they really don't need it at all, sometimes I swear my Rose Hair takes a bath in hers lol shes weird!

 

[AlyeskaWolf]

Hahaha, alright, sponge is removed!!! Thanks for letting me know. My Rosie would stand on the sponge and seem to suck from it. Now I'm interested to see how she does it ^.^ I bet my Rosie does something weird, shes an oddball. I know she doesn't like submerging her feet tho.

 

[AlyeskaWolf]

Shes like a cat, she'll accidentally dip a foot in and yank it out. Like, oh, I'll post a pic of how she always drank her water, I got a pic right before posting this thread.

 

[AlyeskaWolf]

What she used to do:

Can't wait to see what she'll do now. She always does things in the most entertaining ways.

 

[khatchet]

My rose would always get mad when I put water in and try to bite me. Then go kick dirt in it so I would have to change it again.

What Have We all got in common? Demented Rosies

 

[khatchet]

Yes and every one should have a rose at some point.

 

[BigTGirl93]

Yes I agree Rosie's are so common among the Tarantula Hobby I too think everyone should own one, there so easy to care for but there personalities are all so different lol they are awesome!

 

[AlyeskaWolf]

Lmao, I'm sorry khatchet but that cracked me up. Rosies are so diverse with their personalities I so agree!!!! I'm SO happy my first T is one...she sorta makes me feel like I can handle another one cause she is sooo...lol, schizo. She has like 2 personalities. Absolutely fascinates me, I LOVE it. Yay for Rosies!!!!! <33333 I want a Mexican Red Knee next, pretty bad. Can't wait.

OH! I just added another arachnid member to my family: Jumping Spider. STOKED!

Sally in the tall one, new jumper (still needs a name) in shorter.

 

[AlyeskaWolf]

^ Video of the new guy.

 

[khatchet]

I have always wanted a red knee too.

I have always wanted a red knee too.

They are so gorgeous. Just something about them that reminds me of a vastly different colored rosie. I hear they're slightly more even tempered than Rosies. Like...All of our rosies seem to have such vast different personalities, I hear the red knee is alot like rosies just not so...unpredictable. I guess. I started wanting one when I was 14. Took me til I was 24 to get my first one, my rosie. 10 years. Hoping to have a red knee in about a year or less.
