    I have an unusual situation

    I agree as well! I don't know how many Ts your talking about, but I would go to folks you know and trust first. I would think, under the circumstances, most folks would help out. I have done this before myself, taken in a small group of Ts for a friend who was moving out of country. Most were...

    Keeping T's warm in winter

    I use styrofoam coolers to create micro climates. I put the smallest heat mat inside on the bottom underneath two wire plastic coated tiered cabinet shelf things, have a thermostat and a temperature gauge, and keep a mason jar with water in there for humidity. The tiered wire cabinet racks...

    A series of videos for beginners

    Good job! I always refer to tarantulas as observational pets, much like a tank of tropical fish. They don't care to be handled and for the emotional and physical well-being it is best to just observe them.

    What kind of enclosure do you use??

    I get all of my containers from the Container Store, either online or at the store which is quite a ways from me. They have a very nice selection of sizes and they are all the same, so everything looks neat. I don't know how to upload a picture, but if anyone wants to see one just email me and...

    Lethargic After Molt

    [/COLOR]She is not doing well at all! In a death curl! I took her out and put her in ICU. She is missing a front leg and the other front leg is leaking severely. I super glued her wound, but I'm pretty sure she is dead! I'm going to give her a day to be sure, but I think she is dead. I couldn't...

    Lethargic After Molt

    I received a lovely subadult female regalis Weds and Thurs evening she was molting. She created a nice web hammock for herself, but was tangled up in her molt and not moving when I went to bed Thurs night. Next morning she was out of the molt, but laying on top of it. She has not moved off the...

    How to Make Holes in Plastic Enclosures?

    I think the problem may have been our drill. Its an older cordless and the battery wasn't good. I bought a new plug in one. I am hoping it will work better.

    How to Make Holes in Plastic Enclosures?

    I have tried using a soldering iron and the plastic gets burned around the edges of the holes. I have also use a drill and it creates sharp edges that I am afraid will cut the Ts. I bought a large quantity of really nice see through plastic boxes and tall plastic enclosures for arboreals from...
