Wow! That enclosure is seriously cool! You could sell those.

The only way I know that you could successfully drill through glass is with a Carbide glass/tile drill bit that you can find at Home Depot. The biggest issue you’ll have is getting the initial hole started. I personally think it would be much easier to take the plexiglass or acrylic insert...

Well sadly... it seems to be in a death curl at the moment. I’m not sure if it’ll pull out of it or not. The first photo is from two days ago, and the second is from a few moments ago. If you zoom in, you can see that all of its little feet are pulled underneath it.

Our most aggressive BY FAR is our featherleg aka: Stromatopelma Calceatum, ACCORDING TO everyone I’ve ever spoken to about the species. From my experience, it’s been a pet rock, but I leave it alone. Look into it!

I added the full name because I wanted to make sure everyone knew exactly what I was talking about before I posted. In regards to the sub, I was able to gather that this is. “Hybrid” sp. so I’ll be sure to make adjustments to the depth so as to make the ground level with the bottom of the...

Has anyone ever had any bizarre encounters with this species? This particular T is a 2” sling and is exhibiting some very strange behaviors. For example: He has eaten two large crickets in the last 3 days, very healthy eater. No issue here. However, when not eating, I’ve observed the T curled...

:woot: That is an incredible enclosure. I love the bark layout

I thought this photo was just stunning. The ghostly hue, the amazing blue coloration that transitioned into black later... I’m in awe!!

Love it

Wow that’s impressive!!

I just began my own colony a month ago. I would recommend buying a box of adult males and females, which can be found on amazing from “dubiaroaches.com”. Yes they are cleaner, but people can develop allergies from them if not handled properly. “Joshsfrogs.com” has an excellent tutorial video...

Well thanks man! They were really cheap, and extremely easy to set up! They are 5oz ice cream cups from amazon. I believe 30 of them was $9.99

It looks to me like your A.A. decided to poop, and the poop molded. Our AA poops... constantly lol. I may be incorrect, but fungus or bacteria needs a medium to grow like that. I'd scoop it out with a spoon or pair of tongs, and see if you can let the enclosure dry out for a couple of days.

The quick answer to question 2: don't pack it down. Your T will handle that as he begins to burrow. In my wife and I's experience, our Brachypelma is very very finniky. One moment, he's chill and relaxed, the next he's kicking hair because we walked past his enclosure. I have to agree with the...

There ya go! My wife and I made these this week.

Oh I absolutely agree. I love building my own!

Oh wow! I'd love to see pics!!

@Androxian Well looking at the comparison, it definitely looks apparent! Thank you for the photo share! :woot:

Hey Arachnoboards, I was curious to see how many of my fellow T enthusiasts are big into customizing and building their own enclosures, versus having them pre-made or shipped with the supplies to do so. The reason I ask is this: over the last few weeks, I've purchased several variants of...
