About to order my/our first Tarantula. Been researching for several months now. Have decided that I will gradually get and raise slings of every Brachypelma that I can get. They are just gorgeous and so varied. I also want an Acanthoscurria geniculata...wow. Just today my wife informed me that...

I became interested in Tarantula keeping in late 2018...October/November because my wife started me watching some feeding videos. That morphed into starting some research into proper care. Which lead me here through a mention by Tom Moran on his Youtube channel. I decided from the first that I...

Still waiting for warm weather and deciding on species before ordering first tarantula. But my 5 year old Granddaughter informed me today(while looking over my shoulder) that I will be getting her that pretty black and red one...Brachypelma auratum. So ya thats my vote LOL.

Try Zippo lighter fluid, its what we have always used. Just clean with soap and water after.

Yup...they don't get hung up.

@Minty Cover the tub hole...LOL Thanks I might have actually forgotten that. I am actually laughing out loud right now! Really leaning toward A. geniculata or N. chromatus to go along with my A. chalcodes.

@Vanisher , @asunshinefix Thanks.

@Teal that is from TarntulaCanada.

@viper69 Ya I can get "longwinded" at times. Just trying to get my thoughts across clearly.

I have also seen them refered to s semi-arborial.

Very attractive and affordable. Appreciating all the input!

@Chris LXXIX Thanks. It is off the table.

First few rehouses will be done inside a large tub possibly inside our shower.

@cold blood I feel the same about the Bitey Thing. Someday maybe. Any opinions on Davus pentaloris? It is a colourful beast. @Olan thanks. P. sazimai is her second choice...its blue she says.

So had an interesting talk with my wife over coffee this afternoon before work. She commented on the fact that I have been reading about Tarantula species for close to 3 weeks now and am not ordering my first for at least another week. Asked if keeping 3 or 4 is really much more work then just...

@Ungoliant thanks.

Getting first Tarantula soon. Will post here shortly thereafter

Thanks!

I have a question i regards to the C. cyaneopubescens and instead of starting a new thread I will ask here. Been considering a GBB as a first/second T and was wondering if they are semi-arborial? Many of the videos I have watched seem to have branches and more height above the substrate than a...

I think for now I will just avoid any easily avoided issues.
