I know the B. hamorii isn't 3 inches. He's a little over 1.5. I measured his latest molt. I'm getting a N. chromatus that's 3 inches and I'm unsure about the size of the enclosure to set up.
Correct. The one in the photo is the hamorii.
Is a deli cup going to be to small for a 3 inch Sling? I ordered a few more Ts and most of them are going in vials but I got a slightly larger one from Fear not tarantulas. I'm thinking I might have to move my brachypelma hamorii into a cup and give hers to the new sling. She's in a slightly...
My A. seemani however is a character. He does this super frustrating thing where if I let his water dish dry out he covers it in webs and attacks the tongs when I try to move the webs to fill the dish... He's a goofball, so we named him Ziggy.
I think that's my favorite thing about Ts. The huge differences, not just in the different species, but from spider to spider as well. It's also probably the thing I argue about the most when "spider haters" start talking down about them being boring and all being the same.
No need to apologize! I love hearing about other people's Ts. That's why I'm here after all. The two slings that I have don't do a whole lot, and the one adult I do have, is super shy and I don't see him/her a lot so having a T that does things is super exciting for me.
Ik for sure I'm getting the GBB. I've wanted one since before I got my other three, but didn't want to start with it. And I've had very good luck so far with not spooking my Ts. I've gotten backlash for saying this before, but I think having practice on the whole slow and steady thing with my...
My worry with the venom is that I have an immune disorder so my body won't try to fight it. I have an EpiPen for my current Ts just in case, but idk if an EpiPen would do anything with OWs. If I wanted to get a terrestrial, and didn't want to start with a super quick one, what would you...
Okay so, I got a bonus at work and want to get more tarantulas. I know for sure I'm getting C. cyaneopubescens and I'm think Caribena versicolor as well. At some point I'd like to get a Gooty sapphire ornamental(can't remember scientific name lol), but I think that may be a bit beyond my care...
Haven't posted in forever... Just thought I'd update on my B. hamorii. He's gotten so big and is starting to show some reds!
My N. chromatus is a pain though. He's only eaten twice and is very flighty...
I also took in an A. seemani that someone abandoned at my landlords other property. He's...
I've had my B. hamorii for about a month now and she/he finally molted. I think the most is waaaay to small to sex though. How long should I wait before I offer foot again?
I can try to move him to a smaller one. I have some deli cups, but it seems to small. The one he's in is what the breeder sent. Should I take out the web and see what inside it? I would really hate to since it's the first time he's made one. I pulled on it a little and the white is definitely...
Look what my B. hamorii did! Kind of looks like there's something in the web. Could it be a molt, or part of his dinner. He's only eaten this one time so I'm not sure.
It's the eating that's bugging me. I'm used to hungry little monsters as pets. They haven't eaten in the days, and ik that's normal, but it's still never wracking.
