    zophobas feeding

    hey there. am using zophobos for my Ts currently. they're a good alternative feeder for crickets, and so far have been using them without any ill effects. regarding leaving them in, they can cause substantial damage even to sub-adult Ts, so i wouldn't recommend that. you could try what...

    B. smithi wants to be aboreal???

    just check for the normal symptoms. wet substrate, or temperature. those are on the top list i guess. or maybe there's something in the substrate its trying to get away from.

    Webber prep

    still possible imho. generally the Ts do wander around at night (when most of us are sound asleep), especially if they're really hungry!

    Do you get upset when your new sling is bigger than advertised?

    mine's the other way round tho. i get upset when it arrives smaller than advertised. bigger is better i think!

    super active spider?

    maybe you've gotten a rare T that likes to move around. Is it new to the enclosure or is there something in there that's bothering it? but anyway, if your T seems to be healthy or happy, why not?

    What kind of water do you use?

    i use filtered tap water. and that's cause to me it seems to leave less spots on the tank.

    Chilean rose buried her water dish.

    rosies are weird alright! no sponges, they're evil! really, i'd recommend sticking to water dishes or misting for slings. Ts can't drink from sponges and they harbour a good amount of bacteria, multiplying them faster than you can breathe.

    A drop of venom in the web?

    T drool maybe? i seen it happen with a couple of my Ts. feedback i got from the boards is that they use it to clean their fangs.

    coincidence i'd say? if that's really the case, i'd mist every single sling container of mine right now!

    What's a good beginner webbing tarantula?

    +1 for GBB. they're awesome webbers. not to say obts arent, but those little devils shoot way too fast, and coloration wise it bows out to the gbb, unless of course if you're mesmerized by the star patterns on the obt's carapace.

    Oh no!

    most likely be nematodes. you should isolate the said spider from the rest. hit the search button, there have been instances of Ts plagued with nematodes that had been saved. no harm giving it a try.

    Physical differences?

    its quite similar. to the untrained eye its hard to differentiate. took me a couple of years worth of staring to be able to see the difference in the carapace. the color's a little different too, likely in the range of 2-3 stops.

    Can't see my spiderling

    what sling is it? but i wouldn't fret on that, moreover it could just be preparing for a molt.

    First T for girlfriend.

    GBB's the way to go seriously. On my side, its a hit with the ladies, full grown or sling.

    Deli Cups

    most hardware stores sell them. if its too much of a trouble or where distance is a problem, i usually ask the food stall guys to order for me. well, that's provided if you're quite close to them, they wont earn a cent off you.

    2 different brachys, same problem?

    possibly its such a huge coincidence that they're both mature males? just a guess tho, from the size you mentioned.

    Biting the KK lid

    hmm the link by widowman seem to point towards Ts not being able to chew through a plastic KK. why would that be.. doesn't make any sense to me, if they're strong enough to destroy wire mesh, why not plastic KKs?
