    What are some beginner reptiles that can live in a 40 or 75 gallon?

    I decided to look for either a hognose snake, corn snake, or leopard gecko. Beardie care seems rather intimidating (for now). I have time to research some more.

    What are some beginner reptiles that can live in a 40 or 75 gallon?

    I’m looking into beardies, but don’t they need at least 120 gallons or more?

    What are some beginner reptiles that can live in a 40 or 75 gallon?

    I’m making plans for when I go to another expo (hopefully this month) and I’m looking into getting my first reptile. I am interested in leopard and crested geckos, but I want to see other options are out there, I think I have room for two 40 gallon enclosures or one 75 gallon. Plus care...

    Today in the Spider Room?

    Finally rehoused the new additions that I got at the expo on Sunday. The Avic was simple to rehouse, the P. cambridgei was a pain to say the least, and the O. ornatus millipedes were obviously no trouble at all. Finished all the enclosures a 2 hours ago after a long nap and a dead drill battery...

    Hobby love thread

    I love everything about the hobby, but one of the coolest parts of the hobby is watching the difference in behavior among individuals of the same species.

    Raising millipedes has been great

    So far I’m keeping 25 millipedes/2 species. Making this thread in case I end up being the lucky one succeeding where others have failed with Orthoporus ornatus (picked up 5 yesterday from an expo). If for some odd reason I get lucky and figure out how to get them to reproduce, I will post it...

    Any New Additions?

    Went to the local expo (Muncie, IN) yesterday. Wasn’t a great haul as the expo had only a few inverts in general this time. I ended up with: P. cambridgei 0.1.0 (a thick one) A. avic 0.1.0 (confirmed female by me) Orthoporus ornatus millipedes x5 (getting heavily into millipedes) Enclosure...

    What is a good species of mantis to start with?

    Another thing is enclosures, what do you recommend? As I see some kept in jars, others in net cages.

    What is a good species of mantis to start with?

    There’s an expo coming up soon and I was thinking of getting my first mantid(s). I’m just trying to figure out what my options are. My specialty is tarantulas so this is going to be something new.

    Today in the Spider Room?

    This was a few day’s ago, I simply forgot to post it here. I rehoused my three Heterothele slings. Two of them cooperated, the third not so much, yet still went smoothly. To make things easier I fed them ahead of time.

    What is a species that you have no interest in keeping?

    I want to raise every species at some point, but “for right now” I have zero interest in raising an H. maculata, S. calceatum, and T. seladonia (which is unbelievably overrated, this is one species that if I never keep one it’s no big deal).

    Who molted today?

    One of my H. villosella slings molted.

    Any New Additions?

    For sure, it’s bi-monthly, which could pose a problem (as you probably know all too well). Going back in July for some P. auratus hopefully.

    Any New Additions?

    3 H. villosella slings which were larger than you usually find on vendor lists. I don’t think I’ll ever do online buying ever again after experiencing my first expo today. I also picked up some ivory millipedes and carnivorous plants.

    Expectations vs. Reality

    I think this one was shortly after a molt. This picture was taken around 2 years ago. unother expectation I had is that A. hentzi were going to be slow growing. While not exactly wrong, I found both of mine molted at a medium rate.

    Expectations vs. Reality

    Many say Aphonopelma hentzi are dull and boring an appearance with a lack of appetite to match, so when I got my first one, that’s what I expected. I could not have been more wrong. Look at a P. muticus and you’ll see what dull brown looks like. Dull is something the A. hentzi is not, they are...

    What Are The Laws For Tarantulas On An Airplane?

    My guess is confiscation and probably other issues.
