    T blondi female growth rate

    Doubled in size in 2 months and she's still not even a year old. She's already pushing 6 inches at a bit over 10 months, so I'm guessing I'll the up with one of those super big Theraphosas. She's also pretty calm. I think this is quickly becoming my fav spider.

    I feed 4 times a week, large meals, and temp is around 80 to 82F

    A geniculata growth rate

    She went from the size of an adult cricket, about 1 inch, to almost 6 inches in less than 1 year. When they say these Ts grow fast, they ain't kidding. A must have spider or your collection ain't complete.

    Blaze, my gorgeous betta fish

    This is my giant hmpk betta fish. They're absolutely gorgeous, or maybe I like colorful animals too much. 4 months old and already 3.5 inches lol. I been told this species can reach 6 inches but I'm expecting 5 for this one.

    A geniculata female, freshly molted

    Haven't fed her yet, think it's still too early. Still a bit skittish as she usually is fresh from a molt but no hair kicking and still relatively calm. I adore this girl. Along with my T blondi, G pulchra, B albiceps, and B emilia, they're my top 5 favs. (The first 3 are my top 3 though 😂)

    Just for you, a fellow A geniculata fan, I'll post another one!

    A geniculata freshly molted

    Took her a while to molt this time but she's gorgeous as ever and a good deal bigger. She molted on Nov 29th so I'll feed her again on Dec 5th or so.

    Bing AI (Chat GPT 4.0) on tarantulas.. surprising results

    As of today, no generative AI can write an entire thesis even for an unaccredited school or college, much less for university students trying to get a professional degree (healthcare, law, physics etc). They could help with certain boring parts, so they can save you sometime but if you let one...

    Rose Hair Tarantula almost 4+ Years and she is still not eating

    A hill I would die fighting on: these Ts make 0 sense as pets, especially now.

    Bing AI (Chat GPT 4.0) on tarantulas.. surprising results

    Google lens is computer vision, and a pretty robust one at that. It's not generative or generalized. It does one thing only but it does it really well. To be fully honest, I think this is the best possible use for generative AI; to get a summary of what most sources on the Internet says. You...

    Bing AI (Chat GPT 4.0) on tarantulas.. surprising results

    Exactly. If anything this test proves that this hobby has come a long way since the days of sponges for water dishes 😂. Like you said, the main reason why it's giving (mostly) correct answers is because (at least for this topic) most people and sources are no longer sharing outdated or incorrect...

    Bing AI (Chat GPT 4.0) on tarantulas.. surprising results

    Some people say generative AI is the future of the internet, and since most new hobbyists get their information from the Internet I decided to see if the "best" generative AI (Chat GPT 4.0) is, at least as of now, a half decent source of information for a brand new keeper. 1. Are tarantulas...

    Do tarantula speices have different bite force ?

    They don't bite in the same way that most vertebrates do, as they don't have jaws. Their fangs fold parallel to each other too, and not in a pincer shape unlike true spiders. What they do is they bring their fangs down with their entire body weight while using their pedipalps to pull their prey...

    Tarantula eating Plant on its own.

    Some moisture dependant Ts would benefit from a bioactive setup.. like T blondi. Plus, that's something they have in nature. I'm not saying it's impossible to keep them in a plastic box full of dirt only, but technically bioactive is more natural and perfectly ok for them.. regardless of it...

    Tarantula eating Plant on its own.

    There's nothing wrong with live plants for the most part. Ts will uproot some plants, which would kill them, but I've had success with many Ts that simply didn't care about the plants. If your T keeps killing or chewing the plants then bioactive might not be an option. I know a guy who had...

    When should we expect to see the G rosea on the market again?

    Unpopular opinion, but I don't miss them much. They kinda self selected themselves out of the hubby! They grow extremely slow, and the ones I'm familiar with were pet rocks and had shit appetite. Not to mention that, other than the red color form, they look night special. You would be waiting...

    Tarantula News

    You can say a deer caused a crash, I can believe that.. but saying a tarantula caused the crash is dumb and stupid.. the driver didn't react right and that's what caused the crash. We all make mistakes, and I hope everyone makes full recovery, but don't pin the blame on the spider 🙄
