From where did you procure all of those perfectly sized, simple & matching frames for the exuvia? I've had trouble finding ones that are just right... Just like... Those. Thanks!

I've had many Brachy's, including a couple Smithi's, and I've not observed movements like that. That does not, however, necessarily mean something is wrong with your spider. It looks... weird, though. I do not have any personal experience with DKS, so I'll avoid commenting on that side of...

I'm wondering what types of lenses people use for taking macro images of their spiders... I have a Canon G10, & I'm looking around for a new lens... Anyone have any suggestions?

Yeah, B. Verdezi... or even B. Albiceps. Either way, awesome!

Male, yes?

OK. Whoever he is, I, for what it's worth, have chosen not to respect his decision to put a Blondi on his face. People generally have a hard enough time understanding, let alone respecting, why some people enjoy keeping tarantulas. This clip reinforces the incorrect notion, which most people...

?????????????????????????????????????????????????? ????? But... Guy Tansley... is... smart... Does. Not. Compute.

??? The guy with the Blondi on his face... is... Guy Tansley?

Definitely G. Pulchripes.

Just beginner's luck? I've only been keeping tarantulas for about 3 years now, but so far I've proven to be unaffected by hairs. I've been kicked at in close proximity to Brachys & Grammostolas, & have gotten a good rub from an Avic. No reaction. I'm sure I got tagged by a 6in LP during...

Yeah, male. From what I've seen, that kind of banded coloration above the epigastric furrow seems to indicate male in this species... Know what I mean? The region where the fusillae would be is noticeably darker than the parts to the right & left...

If by "young" you mean it's a spiderling., maybe this is irrelevant, especially since it's totally theoretical, but: I've always wondered if one could bait a hide placed in a warm, dark spot as described here by a few people with something stinky like a pinky mouse...? If the T were big &...

I also would like to attempt to resurrect this thread and know how it turned out...

Just thought I'd share: I was in Montreal recently and stumbled upon an insectarium that was pretty cool. No crazy-rare species or anything, but they have a beautiful Blondi. Also a large tank of Avic's living communally. I remember being impressed by the way they set up some of the...

No. No no no. Noooo. Holy [expletive] crap. Thank you for posting a needed reminder of why I just wouldn't be into keeping Haplo's... Almost bought one today just on an impulse. Went the other direction & got a PZB... If my girlfriend saw one of my T's jump I'd have a hard time keeping...

I used to feel anxious about how much money I was putting into tarantulas, even though my collection is very modest. The most I've had at a time is 17, I think... Then I got a puppy. Now I'm back to feeling just great about how LITTLE money I spend on tarantulas. A routine trip to the vet...
