no, don't put any kind of insecticide on it. it's an insect. put some isopods in the enclosure. roly polies. they'll eat the mites.

so then i guess your experience is the rule, rather than the exception. i've been bitten more than a few times myself. if they bite me on a calloused area, there's no reaction. it's different if i'm bitten on say, the back of the hand. is your only purpose to argue? that's gonna help the...

what do you think happens in nature? the life cycle of everything varies. in nature t's gorge then fast. eating is dependent on what's available. captivity is a man-made condition. feeding a couple crix a week year round is something one does to satisfy one's self. they're t's not dogs or cats...

it looks as if all of you have been infected by the pokemon virus...... gotta catch em' all!!! oh, i'm not excluding myself. i have forty-ish.............

hey, no problem. i have a pretty good idea that caco knows what he's talkin about. i read over on the ats as well. dr. shelly is over there too. he's the man in the know and he praises caco quite often. so, umm what's up with your new avatar? is that goth or emo? j/k!

i'm sure that if you do a search, you'll find lots of info on these. i have one. i think it's the mai chai variant. i'm still getting used to it. it seems to be happy in a low ventilation enclosure with room to burrow. it'll leave it's terminal legs exposed near the surface lazily looking for a...

yeah, and you can't own a pittbull dog there either. there in denver a few years ago a cop stopped a family PASSING THROUGH, on the interstate. they confiscated the dog, fined the owners and put the dog to sleep. colorado doesn't have the brightest legal system. i own a pittbull dog and i've...

ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!! i can't wait till eltyra&antenna sees this. i wonder if this is snough to silence him. caco, choo...... you are hereby vindicated!!! court is now out of session. millipeter: thanks for digging up this info, this is just what was needed in another thread that is now...

He still owes me $30.:mad:

no tarantula qualifies..... a pede on the other hand is quite a different story!

well, when you rehouse, generally the tarantula is taken from one enclosure and put into another. cleaning doesn't involve relocating the spider.

to each his or her own......... i'm pretty sure that t's evolved alongside the other creatures though......

cool, that's the answer i wanted. i was thinking ring furrow, but i couldn't find any documentation. so it's on all heros pedes eh? and the furrow is more prominent in some than others?

no, i wasn't talking about colors specifically. more like a segment count question. on the second pede, third pic down there's the head, then the tergite directly behind the head seems to have an indentation in it. or is that 2 segments? i'll use the colors to map it out to make up for my...

if you want. if you put some isopods in there to, you shouldn't have to worry.some people on here sterilize everything. i go all naturale....

i myself use natural decoration. driftwood from local streams, moss from the woods behind my house, and plants i find here and there. i've never had a problem. you might have problems getting plants from a nursery though. murseries and plant retailers use a lot of fertilizer to get plants to...

i'm thinking of heading out to texas in july. i have an uncle out there that's gonna let me stay a few days and let me keep my catch in the garage out of the sun while i hunt. better than storing them in the jeep! isn't there always snow in wisconsin? even in august?lol!

i try to watch nature and respond that way. if it's a time of plenty, ie spring, summer. then i feed heavily. then the diet tapers thru the fall and they rarely eat in winter.

that's because t's aren't like humans..........they don't breed year round! seriously though, decide on what you want and start looking. one will pop up sooner or later. i've been looking for s.heros castanieceps for a while now. it's starting to look like a drive to texas is in order..

try the for sale/ trade section. i've gotten most of my inverts there. most of the people on here are honest. and if you take your time, you can find some deals. i was worried when i wanted to start getting the species i could only see pics of, then i called the only local petshop that carried...
