    G.Rosea/Porteri Pre-molt???

    Thanks for some peace of mind. Its just seemed really different from my normal experience with spoods in premolttt. And the last time this guy molted they buried themselves for like a month and a half beforrbefo so I didn't have a chance to see what they were like.

    G.Rosea/Porteri Pre-molt???

    Hey guys, So I have this 1.5inch rosea/porteri sling that i got about 8 months ago. Today I noticed that it's entire underside has almost blackened overnight. I would usually just assume that this was a normal sign of premolt. Also, my sling hasn't eaten in about 3 months and has continued to...

    A. Avic, Skinny and Picky Eater??

    Yes! It has eaten two small crickets since it molted! It never did come back for that cricket yesterday, haha, it's still just webbed to the wall.. But yeah, I do pay attention to when it gets especially dry in my house and offer it more water accordingly. It's definitely drinking often so thats...

    A. Avic, Skinny and Picky Eater??

    I guess its not that I think they aren't nutritious, they just seem harder to gutload than roaches and worms IME. And also since it is only taking smaller prey items I was hoping it would be willing to take something jucier like roaches. Also, yes. Substrate is dry excpet for when spray a...

    A. Avic, Skinny and Picky Eater??

    Hello, So ive had a 3.5" A Avic (not sure what sex, but doesn't appear to be male as of now) for about 4 months now. So, when I first got them I put them into their new enclosure and started offering food about once a week, but it never took anything, I tried both meal worms and crickets. So I...

    [Inquiry] US online invert store

    Heyyy, can anyone give some recommendations of where they buy Ts and other inverts online? Most of the people I see on Youtube doing ubboxings have all been from europe. Hehe, I would go to more expos and stuff, but I live kinda far away from any of the big reptile/invert shows. But yeah, any...

    Aphonopelma Chalcodes Enclosure.

    Aphonopelma Chalcodes Enclosure.

    Hey Everyone, Just wondering if the enclosure ive setup up would be suitable for my new girl? I'm a pretty new keeper and this is my first adult T (I only have a few slings and a juvie), and I want to make sure the enclosure doesn't have any stupid and avoidable husbandry mistakes. She is a...

    Nhandu Chromatus 1 1/2 enclosure

    Ahh, I see. 3 inches would be almost pushing it though right? Like, if you bought a T at 2.5—3 would you still use one that small for a while or would it be more worth it to put it in something a little bigger? I know Ts like to feel secure but sometimes my mind is blown at how small containers...

    Nhandu Chromatus 1 1/2 enclosure

    Hey, So Im still a beginner and ive just been double checking everything on here to get some second opinions. I got a Nhandu Chromatus sling a couple days ago. More than 1.25, and it just molted so itll be even more than that, but I haven't seen it out and about since before the molt...

    Molt, Photo/Video diary

    Hey everyone. Ive just been kinda curious. Does anyone happen to have a nice video or photo set that timelines the growth of single T after each molt. I mean, at least while its a sling and juvie. I just thought it would be kinda cool to see the progress over time. But ive sesrcsea all over...

    Blocked burrow for pre-molt. I'm just curious.

    Hey guys. So a couple questions, I guess. I have a little 1.25 G. Rosea sling who had just recently closed off the entrance to its hide with some substrate. Which is cool and all because it obviously wants its privacy to molt or binge on netflix or whatever. Hehe. But, it just kinda made me...

    1st time T owner G. rosea sling

    Haah, thanks for the information. The only thing that confusing with slings is that people always talk about an enclosure being too big. But im just trying to understand if its too big in a dangerous/harmful/concerning way or if its too big in just an unnecessary/wasted space kind of way...

    1st time T owner G. rosea sling

    Yeah, ive been feeding about 3 times a week and it ate everytime either instantly or within a couples hours until just the past couple days. Been feeding a small live cricket or a larger one that I prekilled. And the abdomen is quite big from all the research that ive done. Yes yes, ive been...

    1st time T owner G. rosea sling

    OK OK! Thanks. I'm pretty sure they are in premolt. They have been refusing food for the last couple feedings, soooo I'm guessing it should be fairly soon. Is it okay to change an enclosure a bit and add the soil while they are in premolt? I don't want to disturb them too much. I've been trying...

    1st time T owner G. rosea sling

    Yeah, I'm not confident as to what the appropriate size enclosure would be since I've definitely seen people use various types of containers. But it definitely can't escape through the vents. They aren't even able to get their carapace through, let alone the abdomen. I'll keep in mind the advice...

    1st time T owner G. rosea sling

    Hey there! I am a first time T owner and I am happy to say that I've finally decided to add a little G. rosea sling to my family. I just had a question for all you advanced T owners. I got my sling about 2-3 weeks ago, and they are about 1-1.5" I keep my little guy in an extra small critter...
