    Abdomen getting smaller

    A. Avicularia, 2 or 3 inches. Left a crushed superworm three weeks ago, dead as hell, and it's gone-- had to have been eaten, like usual. For some reason though, the abdomen keeps getting smaller. Normal? Can pre-molters eat but change physically like this? The abdomen was black but now it's...

    Reptile Expos

    I guess I can ask my dad to go with me, he likes going to festivals so maybe he'd like a reptile expo?

    Reptile Expos

    Well, for me specifically, I'd love to go-- It's just that I'm living on my own for the first time, and living in a city for the first time (for college). Basically, I don't go out much. Trying to find parking somewhere I've never been and learning the bus system both sound equally frustrating...

    Reptile Expos

    There's an expo in my town that starts in 10 days, 40 min from my place in a part of town I've never been in. I'd love to go see what they're all about in the flesh, but anxiety is making it very hard for me. Why don't you guys help me out by telling me about your experiences going to them?

    Thanks, guys! I'll keep them together and crush their heads before feeding them to the spids.

    About Superworms

    Maybe I'll try, then. I'm just worried about her not caring and letting the worm drop and rot on the substrate, cause then I'd basically have to mess up her home digging it out. She was just rehoused and hardly has a web in the works, it's flimsy.

    About Superworms

    I bought some for the first time recently, 50 of them was the smallest amount available to me. I only have two tarantulas and one is an avic avic, so probably not going to feast easily or safely on those from up on her castle. I heard the worms mature very fast and become beetles, so what do I...

    Introduce Yourself

    Hi, I'm from WI and I just got my second tarantula (E. Murinus). I figured at this point I should join a forum and stock up on more information regarding care and enclosures. I'm an artist and my persona is a spider, so getting into the hobby was easy and fun. I'm 19 and I would like to take...
