    I'm a newbie and molting scares me, discuss

    Sort of general T questions

    Lividum would be a good one to compare . I have never had and adult Minx but I have had many lividums and produced a few sacs and raised many to adult. while some of my slings and juvs would get creative or just lazy with their homes none ever made anything like my minax. my adults always dug...

    Officially lost my mind. (OBT...)

    i am not saying experience doesnt better a person but to think your experiences with other tarantulas be it one year or 20 does not make you any more qualified then anyone else trying to control any tarantula that is faster meaner then you you cant compare a dr to owning a obt totaly...
