I didn't think it was possible for him to care but I wasn't positive so had to ask. He is a pink toe/avicularia avicularia. He's about 3.25 inches and he just molted about 4 months ago. Nothing has changed in his enclosure recently and I keep a thermostat in there to keep the temperature. Maybe...

Ok so then why is he acting unlike his normal self? Iv had him for almost a year and he hardly comes out of his Web and now I havnt seen him touch his web.

Ok so 2 weeks ago my mom died. Since then iv mostly stayed I'm my room. My tarantulas terrarium sits right next to my bed. He almost always sits in his Web on the farthest side from my bed. Since my mom died he has been sitting on the glass closest to my bed facing me. Why is he doing this? Iv...

I just have a plastic lid that latches on. But I'll try that. It seems like a good idea!

I keep them on soil with a dish that has bottle caps of water so if they get tipped over it won't make the soil soaked. And then I usually put the food in another dish in their tank. They also have a egg carton to climb on. I take out dead crickets when I see them. So I don't understand where...

Well I just wanted to give them a variety. I had read that that was good for them and for the T that's gonna eat them. I just wanted to know if the bloodworms were what was causing the gnats and if they are I won't use them again.

So iv been keeping my feeder crickets in a little tank. I wanted to try feeding them something different so iv been feeding them freeze dried bloodworms. The crickets seem to like them but iv been noticing a lot of gnat like things flying around the room. Is it the bloodworms causing the gnats...

I didn't know that, I thought they wouldn't eat dead prey, thanks for the info!

The crickets I got were just a little bigger then my Ts abdomen. Is that still too big?

Ok thank you!

Can crickets be too big for a T to eat? I didn't see mine eat it but I don't see it in there at all and it's been days. Also can crickets eat each other? Found a bottom half of one in the bag the came in and am just curious. If the caniblize why leave a bottom half or did I just pay for a half a...

I agree! And it's also fun telling others what you learned, I know when I tell my little 9 year old brother about my tarantula he's always so fasinated. I think it's good to let others know these things too, gets rid of the fear some might have.

Iv been keeping it in my room and there is light coming in from the window and it's not directly in it. I just didn't know if it would need more like then that

Sorry he/she

Yours looks so proud of his web! Or at least that's what it looks like to me :)

I know this is has been said multiple time but I just wanna put it out there too. I just got my first tarantula a few days ago, I did research and watched tons of youtube videos and thought I was ready. Nope!!! I am so lucky to have found this site, if I didn't I probably wouldn't have my...

Really? Jeez I shouldn't have listened to anything the lady at the pet store, everything she told me was wrong, I wish I'd found this site sooner thanks for the help, your seriously saving my T

That looks amazing! I can't wait for mine to do that. How long does it take to make one when it's first introduced to a new home?

Ok so I returned the heat lamp but I was wondering what kind of light would be good? I'm asking because without the lamp it looks so dark. I figure some light would be good for it, right?
