thank you!

Hooray for me!!! My 2.5" LP molted yesterday morning!!! This is my first LP and the first I've ever seen molt so I just need to know a few things: How long should I leave her be before handling her again? How long should I wait before feeding her again?

Me and the sling have been getting along quite well, recently... it ate a cricket torso a few days ago and now its abdomen has become rather fat... it's not too skittish when I hold it but the lil guy will definitely let me know when it wants back into its container lol...

Ok, I guess I can handle that lol... is there a particular type of substrate that works best for the T to burrow in?

So how do you get yours to eat? Should I just let the cricket wander into the burrow?

So when do they usually come out of their borrows to eat?

What kind of substrate do you keep yours in?

For those of you who may know my story, I recently purchased a 2" L. Parahybana over an online dealer and when it came in the mail today, I got a little surprise in the form of a 1/2" Citharischius Crawshayi sling in another tube in the same package! I've been trying to get in contact with the...

and beautiful!!! Not just in size but in color! I guess I'm just a sucker for spiders with red hair on dark hair lol

Wow! Thanks for all the tips and info! Yall are really gettin' me fired up about this lil guy!

After a few bad pet store experiences with highway robbery prices, I've decided to purchase a 2" L. Parahybana sling instead of a larger adult (that means that my 20 gallon tank will have to wait awhile before it gets put to use). This is not my first sling, but it is my first sling of this kind...

I thought an arachnid with the size and stature of the L. Parahybana deserved a large tank...lol

Okay, so the plan is for me to finally get a Brazilian Birdeater and I was just wondering how big the terrarium for this creature has to be. I have a 20-gallon tank thats a little over 30 inches long and about 12 inches wide (those maybe backwards but I hope you can get the point, lol). The...

I have a brand new story to tell of my new B. Smithi, Red... When I got him (I dont really know if its a he or a she) yesterday I decided to let him get settled into his little critter container, when I realized that this container (complete with water dish, the box he came in, and a little...

Yeah, I know how that feels... there's a pet store not 10 minutes from my house that gets ONE tarantula about every month, and they only bring in Rose Hairs or Pink Toes. Then, when you ask them what Ts they can get... they say: "I'm sorry, We only get faxed on mondays so we really cant tell you...

Thank you very much... I've never had much luck with B. Smithis as far as finding or buying, but I feel blessed to have found Red... It's a little warrior though, even if it does try to run back toits box when I open up its cage.:)

Ok, the story of my new tarantula (a 4 or 5" B. Smithi) is not all that epic, but its a story worth the telling anyway... It all started about a month ago when I purchased a B. Smithi sling from a man online. I waited day in and day out for that sling to arrive but for some reason or another...

Thats hilarious

Congradulations you two that started this war (I can't remember your names) you've made your point by turning this thread from a collection of jokes to a place where scolded T owners can express their anger! Gone is the Joke-Thread! Long live the thread of ANGER!!! A little over-dramatic but...

Yeah, it's called dark humor and MOST people find that funny... but I guess only a handfull of those people got on Arachnoboards today...
