Perfect! I figured it would be ok but wanted to be certain before committing to anything... again, thank you all so very much, all the help is greatly appreciated, especially since I know I'm going to have even more question to come:)
Like... Can I use local tree barks to make hides and accents...
I'm really starting to appreciate mine, absolutely fantastic creature!
I have a new question about enclosures, is there any reason not to have g.rosea in enclosures side by side where they can see each other thru the glass? One we know is a male and God willing the other will turn out to be...
Haha... I think I'm hooked already, I've just found what I'm told is a immature female G.rosea in the next town, the little man might have a neighbor sooner then expected, lol... I'm driving up there tomorrow to buy some building supplies so I'll be taking a look at her while I'm there...
Excellent! That's good to hear, I'm trying to track down more background information on this guy just for my own peace of mind but I'm very hopeful that he may have quite some time left in him but no matter how it turns out I'm just thankful to be able to learn more about these amazing little...
I dont believe in luck... God willing this little fella will molt successfully while maintaining his manhood, lol... how do I determine for certain if He's about to molt or not? I want to fix his enclosure asap but don't want to disrupt whatever he has going on...
So I just read an article on sexing T's, it sure looks like a male to me now that I kinda know what I'm looking for... from a keepers perspective how does that effect things?
Ok, I took a few more photos... to get the last ones I had to gentle touch it with a paint brush and on the third nudge it abruptly turned and threw a threat pose, lively little fellas, lol...
let me know if I need a different angle or something, I'm new to this and actually had to look...
I watched the vid embedded in Ungoliant's post and I believe my T may be pre-molt, it's flicked most of its hair's off and it's abdomen has darkened considerably over the last few days... I have also observed it lay down a patch of webbing which it sits on more often then not lately... So, my...
Before I get to invested in modifications on the enclosure, can anyone see any potential pitfalls of using the same aquarium in the posted pics but turned on its side, I can make it into a front door accessible terrarium, using two pieces of lexan or plexi? It would lower the overall height...
Thank you very much, lots to absorb there, I have already set a plan in motion to change the enclosure to one more fitting for this species and will try to take pics along the way...
Hello Arachnoboardians!
I find myself in need of expert advice for a new friend I recently acquired, the following pictures will show my T as I received it four days ago, I have been told it's lived in this enclosure for atleast four months after being purchased in a pet store in...
Again, I apologize for hijacking the thread and would like to express the sincerest "Thank You!" to all who have offered up tips and advice, I've already set a plan in motion to initiate changes in the enclosure asap... as I said earlier, it is as I received it a few days ago... I have already...
I haven't changed anything in her enclosure, it is as it came and I'm open to any and all changes that would benefit the T... and yes I believe it's a 10gallon fish aquarium with a 15w sun glow bulb, I think the original owner just bought what the pet store suggested... the critter keeper in the...
Her enclosure is as it came, I can find or build whatever she needs, I just have to know the ideal habitat for her... from what you said I'm guessing she's at risk of harming herself in a fall...
And thank you very much:)
I'll try to take a few more pics later, she flicked her abdomen bald during transport so I've been trying to leave her be for a day or two so I wouldn't add any undue stress...
