Yeah, this is a larger species of Tigrosa. Lot darker, thicker body, usually a tigrosa.

I remember picking some up at NARBC a while ago, all locally collected. Little buggers are difficult to take care of.

No need for pics as I found out the cause. Piece of sphagnum moss caught in the mouth bout half inch long but in a ball. Looks like ill try to get a replacement or refund. Thanks for your help!

Just picked up a pacman frog at NARBC and all seemed fine. Day later it spazzed out then went cold. When i first got it, it had a long piece of sphagnum moss stuck in its (throat?). Pulled it out, and all was fine. Now looking at its dead body i'm trying to find what went wrong and I think i...

I'd say the enclosure is almost perfect. As the spiders gets a bit larger from molts and such, i'd recommend dialing down on decorations and making the substrate level a bit lower. Other than that i'd say it's really good!

Try Bugz UK, they ship to UK and have various weavers. https://www.bugzuk.com/insects/spiders/

Well that kinda sucks, ill try larger housing though.

Some of you might hate me/be jealous, but I've recently acquired a Deinopis Spinosa at NARBC. Right now it's about 2 inches and in a 32 oz deli container with sticks glued on the top to rappel down and catch insects. The thing is, I haven't seen it build it's web or actively catch crickets. I...

Honestly im surprised NARBC didn't take this dude down. Seen alot sold which worries me. I'd love to have one, but i'ts not worth the risk of the fish and game guys knocking on my door.

Ok, was at NARBC Tinley and got some pretty cool stuff. But there was one vendor selling Extatosoma tiaratum and this seemed really odd considering how strict APHIS is on Stick insects. Opinions?

Pics? Acting weird? Saying you fed it two days ago is not very helpful. Sorry for your loss though.

Bought this jumper in October, seller said it was wild caught and has not molted in my care leaving me to believe it was mature when sold to me. Can jumpers mate and hold eggs for this long? I believe this is not a dud because of the small orange eggs that are inside of the cocoon. This may not...

Not sure exactly how hold as I didn't raise her as a sling but i'm going to assume 5 or 6 months now.

I have a female Hogna Carolinensis for a couple of weeks now and she has been showing less and less activity and not wanting to go into her burrow. Fed her 1 or 2 days ago and she took the cricket with no force at all literally walking up to it like an elder and then attempting to grab the...

Didn't phids.net do this? Like P. Regius and P. Otiosus?

Nice! That's amazing how good they're doing!

Where do you live? You Can always buy one on reign of inverts! EDIT: Oh, wait you said were you live.

Sorry for asking, but what is she?

Chicago IL, spotted a huge hairless tarantula looking spider. Bout 2 inches pitch black and huge fangs.Stout legs unlike a wolfie. Possibly a purse web. Very fast and found on a field.

Weird to find one indoors.
