this is funny because i was just joking with the worm the other day about tarantula pms. every once in a while our 3 full grown females will be out of their burrows, all in a pissy mood, and looking like they are ready to pounce on anything that comes near their tank, especially the e. murinus...

we asked the apartment complex if we could keep small animals in cages or tanks like hamsters and small exotic fish and they dont care. the maintenance poeple come in all the time and go, "what's in there?" and when i tell them what they are they just kind of cringe and stay away from them. i...

thanks everybody for the replies. i think the green that might be throwing everybody off a little is just because he is freshly molted, I would suspect that in a few weeks he will dull down to a more brown than green color like everybody elses. We are pretty sure its a singapore blue. Anybody...

So our singapore sp. blue just molted a couple weeks ago and today we finally got to take a peek. We have only had him for a year, when we got him he was about .5" and now is a whopping 6". below is one pic before the molt and then a couple after. the one enlargement is what we are guessing...

i have an adult female, and i wouldnt describe her as fast but i would definitely say shes quick. she never tries to run out of the tank or across it or anything like that, we're not really afraid to leave the top off is what i mean. but i wouldnt put my hand within 6" of her if i could help...

she attacked the tongs around feeding time tonight:

we "adopted" (for the price of on-the-house) a red rump from petco (about $100 around here). it was labeled as a rose hair, $20, but we told the kid working there that we would like a discount because it was missing a leg. he's like you can just adopt it since its a disabled animal, nobody...

our KB is a WC full grown female and she likes to dig a new hole everday, but she's just a bulldozer, slow and always digging. shes almost always out or at least visible. and she hates water dishes. we put one in one night and by morning it was completely burried i swear 10" deep in dirt, we...

so does anyone think we should dig her up or what? normally we see legs out every day if not every other day and we havent seen anything in a month or so. its hard to even tell if theres new poo on the glass.

any body know if the Hamburg, PA show is today AND tomorrow??? emphasis on tomorrow since i missed it today... thanks

thanks for the awesome picture. i would LOVE to get him to hold still long enough to snap a shot like that! we may already have a taker but if he changes his mind i'll pm you. thanks again for the cool pic

we've already sexed it, its male. we just dont know if its a mature male looking for a mate. also, and for anyone else that may be reading, how long after the last molt do we have until it dies?

i dont think i was the one being rude, but anyway, we would just rather give him to someone who could let him "fulfill his duties" than let him sit here waiting to die, sorry, its just the way we prefer to do it. regardless, the question wasn't whether we should get rid of him or not, it was is...

are you being sarcastic or did you just not read the whole thing?

hey everybody we have an OBT that is about 3.5" and we got from the pet store locally about 4 months ago. we thought it was still young considering the size of our last OBT that was 5"+ (female!) not realizing that the males are smaller. anyway, for the last couple months hes been out running...

youre probably right, i just wondered if we needed to order food from somewhere becuase it seems anytime we order foor online for any of our other animals it takes 1-7 weeks to get here! i guess a better question to post would have been is there a place to get grasshoppers or locusts online...

ok yeah like i said i'm not worried about her right this very instant, and shes half made a burrow, but what about a month from now when its the dead of winter and i cant find anything larger than a medium cricket? and as far as "getting over" it, you just didnt need to reply to this post if...

so as seen a post below we just got a new c. crawshayi and the vendor said he was feeding it fuzzies and big ole roaches. we dont do mice and we i hate roaches (childhood trauma, dont ask). so we threw a cricket in to see if she was hungry and she completely ignored it. right now its cold...

i cant remember the name, he had two of them, same size and he had a white knee and a couple praying mantis, some stick bugs...he was on the back side like if you walked in the door go forward and slightly to the right. he had roaches, i remember him from the last show we went to a few months...

its cool, if i saw this picture in someone elses post i would be worried too. id rather have someone point out an obvious mistake than to find out the hardway. thats why we joined the forum!
