Ok so I recently decided to get some more Hissers as my last trio was given to my younger sibling for her birthday as a immunity problem in our aunt whom she lives whith means she cant have most pets. So I went and got another pair of Hissers who are around 2 1/2-3 inches and I threw a few...

Thanks for your input guys she's already settling into the new enclosure and I have a 6 inch heat mat to break out when it gets extremely cold in the evenings should we have another record breaker this year last year we got 3 ft in a week and post the snow our town literally flooded whith the...

@Thekla heres an attempt at a pedipalp shot and the new enclosure. What most seem to be saying is bump the heat so I'll put a mini one along the side for night time as day time sun filters in through the windows and generally warms up my room to about 68F so for now I'll just use a heat...

Heres a pic, and before someone comments on it, yes the soil is dark, I just changed out her enclosure today, and it needed more dirt normally it's much drier.

Ok so ive been Awol for awhile but im back! Im posting cause im currently back down to one T. As my Goldenknee unfortunatley escaped while we were out of town for some weeks and got squashed a few months back :( and I recently lost my huntsman female after the cold snap hit this month. So I'm...

@The Snark Haha ok this Google search comment was so true XD I remember once looking up a species of old world on Google and having a kulcania pop up in images XD but thanks for trying guys! I live in NW Washington if that helps lol but I didn't realize the hobo had such appearance range so...

Haha I kinda suspected as much but I suppose if I can wait it out till post breeding then having however many babies hatch a live whith mom while they grow a bit will fulfill my communal curiosity :)

So now that I've immersed myself in this arachnid business I've thought about trying to breed and decided I'd rather try my huntsman than my alphopelma I was wondering though if one had a pair 2in+ could the two be kept in the same enclosure whith minimal risk of cannibalism & if so What would...

This buddy ran across my path last night. I assume off to search for warmer sanctuary, is this a hobo? From what I've seen eratigena agrestis has a pretty distinct pattern and shading but it was pitch black and I had to use flash so patterns not very great although it looks like it could...

@PidderPeets haha yup! Last year I actually came across a female underwing moth who layed a small clutch right in front of my eyes! It was still really cold/wet out and I wasn't sure if the eggs would even survive so I carefully scraped an off and hatch/raised em indoors :) ended up keeping 10...

Will try to update on them as they grow :) don't ask how many there are. I lost track at 50...

In my opinion caterpillars are so underrated! we get tent caterpillars every year and I've seen people literally burn them alive on the tree for simply being born :( so we got a batch in the one tree we couldn't have them in and ended up cutting off thier branch and moving them inside to safety :)

Hey! So its been awhile! And finally have time to go about and get some more spiders (plus rescued a few wolf's from my chickens after they wandered into the coop for flies) and decided I wanted to get some kukulcania(probably spelt that wrong) so! Who has advice on feed, space/set up? I know...

Now I know the actual scientific name!!! I always just counted them whith our small wolf spiders (lycosidae)

Lol didnt even realize this till just now but weve actually got dolmedes in our back yard lol XD I used to keep and breed em alot when I was younger in a old 20 gal all natural vivarium I set up!

Ooh those sound interesting! Ill look into them thanks! Kukulcania is described exactly like Id describe my hunstman behavior and feeding wise And @Scolopendra1989 yes Olios Giganteus is basically a smaller huntsman species! I did indeed get my baby from Peter at BICS! He was extremely small...

@Draketeeth thanks! I was actually snooping around BICS earlier since thats where I get all my feeders, mantids, milipedes etc. But I totally didnt think of swifts! :D

Hey guys! So recently Ive thought about getting another true spider! And Im unsure on wether I want another species of huntsman like my Olios,(aka golden hunstman) or something simple like my common fuzzy wild orbweavers who I also love. But if I do get another spider babu I face another Issue...

A psycho Alphopema Chalcodes who cant handle being visible .... A lazy and very tolerant G.pulchripes whith an eating problem(shes on a diet right now -_-) And a bratty L.P (he enjoys giving me jump scares)

Thats like how most of the time Alphopelma Chalcodes are supposedly docile and slow :C NOT MY BOY!!! He threatens kicks and lunges as soon as he knows i need to get in his area for whatever reason, my Lp, A genic, and Chaco dont even come close to his temper combined DX!!!
