Probably just small things like a tiny skull or something that would add to the aesthetics. The 4 I'm getting would be C. versicolor, D. diamantinensis, D. pentalore, and Theraphosinae sp. Panama.

Oh, OK. Fair enough! Haha!

Haha! I don’t, but better safe than sorry, especially when I’m so new to this. Which I got a double dose of today because I just had to call the fire department because my CO detector went off. Ended up being an expired unit. Didn’t want to be the guy who didn’t call and then my family and I...

OK, cool! Whenever I feed my slings now, I move the enclosures into a giant plastic tub just in case they bail while I’m feeding or cleaning, I have a bit more time to use the catch cup. Maybe if I end up with a female we can attempt to pair them up at some point down the road? Not sure how long...

Thanks Grym! I appreciate the info! I was actually looking at your pictures of your Theraphosinae sp. Panama earlier. That’s one of the slings I have coming on Wednesday. Any tips on husbandry?

Thanks so much Teal! It’s always awkward starting new things, but I appreciate that everyone here has been so willing to help.

Thanks so much! Pretty pumped to get them!

Cool! Thanks Dman!

Weird rookie question, but I have about half of a bag of Zoo Med Eco Earth that I used to use with my ball python as a small base before putting Reptichip on top of it. I have had it for a year and a half, but I was curious if it could go bad? Mainly due to some type of mold or fungal growth...

Sooooo, I went ham sandwich and ordered 4 T's from JoeRossi today. I got both the C. versicolor and D. diamantinensis, as well as Theriphosinae sp. Panama and D. pentalore. Pretty pumped to watch all of them grow up. Thanks for all of the comments on this subject. I will be rereading the...

Haha! They are such cool animals! Where did you get yours?

That’s awesome! All joking aside, my wife has been a great sport about it even though it wouldn’t be her first choice. She wants me to be happy, but she just doesn’t want me to go overboard right away. Looks like there may be some sales coming up on some of the online distributors though, so my...

It’s pretty tiny at the moment, but I have already seen some hints at what it can do, speed wise, when I was unpacking it after shipping. I’m sure it will be even more noticeable when it comes time to rehouse him/her. I had read some stuff on them being worthy of beginner status, which is why I...

OK. I will definitely take note of that! Thanks!

You guys are making it hard for me to not want to buy them tomorrow. Haha! I may have to start working on the wife again and see what she says. She’s been pretty great about them so far, so we will see how far I can take it before I am sleeping on the street with my spiders.

" Haha! Being from the South, deep frying shouldn't be a problem. Good to hear about the D. diamantinensis. I guess I will get comfortable with these GBB's and then look into one of those down the road. One of mine is already kicking hairs as a sling, and the other one is about as chill as they...

Thanks so much for the information and the reply!

I'm thinking that I will probably wait at least 6 months to a year, and learn from my 2 GBB's and H. villosella, then pick one up. Pretty new to this stuff, but it's so interesting and so fun already. Thanks for the reply!

Cool! Thanks for the reply!
