Please see Rochelle's picture thread for hisser set ups.

Mites. Quarantine them. Total tank change ~ re bake wood decor. Wash everything.

Hey, girlie! I'm looking to get back into the hobby. Am looking for B. Giganteous in any size. Any ideas?

The Cranifer/Fuscus hybrid thingies were sent to us by one of the most knowledgeable and reliable old~timers on this site. (Thanks O.H.:biggrin:) They are nowhere near as large as the B.giganteous - that have been kept pristinely separate from the others. Wing patterns are all as should be with...

JINXED. She ate it the other day. :( I expected it and was elated when it appeared she was going to go through with her project, but I still can't help crying over the loss. :( Will try again with the other 5 girls when Edward matures this season or next. :wall: :wall: :wall:

Ogra's progress during the "big move" After moving Ogra's tank up the basement stairs, trucking her in a cold Dodge across town and reinstalling her on a very old and bouncy wooden farmhouse floor - she's still holding her sac. She is in the master bedroom with the same old lights on and off...

There can be only ONE!!! I LOVE IT!!! And his name shall be Duncan..... :clap: (Cloudy if it turns out to be a girl) ♥

Thanks to all for sharing my joy! ♥ Both of the girlies have molted within the last 2 months...so here's hoping for success! And HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Old Hag! :clap:

The wee one is now eating a very crippled 10 day crix....so CUTE!! ♥ This must be my week for foundling tarantulas.... I found a Brachy sling in my washing machine just a couple of days ago, lol! (Thread on Arachnophiles.myfreeforum.org) I named that one "Snuggles"..hehehe. This one...

aaaaw! Was he mature yet and tried to molt passed that? :( Sorry for your loss, hon!

WOO HOO! Mojo just went ultimate!! :clap: :clap: We're going to pair him with our infamous Elvira and also my girl, Jet ~ once he starts spinning sperm webs. Please keep all digits tangled for their success! :D

Just when we thought that the sac from our girlie N.chromatus was a wash...I just found one single baby under the water dish! :clap: The entire sac was hard and solid ~ no clue how this little toughie made it, but it's certainly a keeper! :clap:

Congrats on the awesome new babies!! :clap: OBT's are so underrated, seriously! You guys did a great job and the babies are wonderful! :D

I'm so proud of my daughter's A.avicularia, Bonnie! This was STAR105.7's first eggsac and we found 88 of the little gems this morning! :clap: Tarangela supplied the MM ("ShyGuy" ~ R.I.P. little buddy!) and jbrd and myself helped pair them - but STAR105.7 did the upkeep and it looks like she...

Exactly right. :clap: The extra males are heading out to stake out new territory, now that there aren't enough "territories" in their current container. Feed off the extra males until you have about 1 male per 10 females. Even this is a very generous ratio for dubia.

Well said...Grasshopper. ;) Here's a pic of an even cheaper version that will last forever and never drown your bugs.

I still shake my head when I read these posts..... 1.) The "Organic" dog/cat foods are not good for your roaches. They contain natural pesticides. Rosemary is a natural pesticide. This is why your Grand Mother and Great-Grand Mother lined her pantry shelves with sprigs of it, and grew it around...

I think the Grammostola slings are the most fun to watch when feeding...we call it the "spider rodeo"..lmao! They barrel roll and flip on their backs, holding their prey in a full nelson just like little wrestlers. :D The C.elegans are pure evil when it comes to feeding time. It's amazing how...

This is what I currently own in my personal collection. Out of this entire list, G.rosea is one of the least likely to be handled, hehehe. No kidding. ;) 1.0.0 Acanthoscurria atrox 0.0.1 Acanthoscurria brocklehursti 0.1.0 Acanthoscurria juruenicola "Gemma" 0.2.0 Acanthoscurria geniculata...

Dang! You beat me to it, James! :D Grammostola pulchra is probably one of the best choices for a first T. They are made of pure sugar. I have 5 of them, of all ages and sizes and every one of them is sweetness-on-8-legs. They cost a bit more to acquire ~ but when you take into...
