yeah i nudged her. she's dead....

a picture she's been like this for a few hours hope this pic helps

my heterometrus spinifer is laying in a very wierd position, kind of on it's side. It is full grown, it's giving birth in the past. Do they molt when they are full size, or is my little lady on the doorstep of death?

I just moved my A. Metallica to large new tank and it's been running laps for three days straight. I hope I'm right in assuming it will eventually settle down and web up. Am I worrying for nothing, or maybe is there something I can do to make him more confortable?

avicularia versicolor has a very obvious one.

Is it just me, or has there been a flood of these on the market recently? It seems that are a lot of questions about them these days.

When I got my A. metallica sling, it was about the same size. To my knowledge, it would generally speaking only take a few hours to molt, but sometimes would stay on it's back for a while after. Give it another 12-16 hours, and if it hasn't moved, poke it with the dull end of a stick.

The general rule of thumb with regards to "escape holes" is that if their abdomen can fit, everything can fit. As long as the holes are smaller than the abdomen, the ma-fa's tip top.

More important than wether it was against the law is whether you have pictures of this massacre you can post for us bloodthirsty fiends?

heavy webbing is a sure sign a molt is coming, at least with my a. metallica, a close cousin of your versicolors. I've notice sometimes "stores" food as well, but haven't noted any connection between storing food and molting.

I've recently discovered that my a. metallica will eat crickets from my finger tips. She (I hope it's a she) is only 2 inches, so I'm not too worried about a bite. She hangs out near the lid of the container I keep her in, so I just open it near her and hold the cricket infront of her. I've...

Just follow your heart, that's what I do.

That's why I bought an A. metallica. Beautiful!

In November, my heterometrus sp gave birth to a small clutch of babies. I've noticed that recently she's begun to put on some serious weight again. Is it possible for her to be pregnant again? I know some species can be pregnant multiple times from one mating, but I'm not sure if heterometrus...

What are the chances of convincing my full size heterometrus sp. to eat an anole? I grow weary of watching it eat crickets, and it won't touch worms of any sort.

I thought I was the only one to see that... What's the deal with that?

Avics are the best choice. Although I think URGENT!!! might have been a little unecessary.

Sounds like you think growth hormones would be a bad thing. Monstrously huge tarantula sounds cool to me.

Pokies are great starter T's. Or H. Lividum. T. Blondie are nice as well. These species are all very docile and LOVE to be handled. I'm just kidding... Get the pink toe. Bracypelma grow too slowly.

the abdomen seems to be healthy size. It's not as big as I'd like it, but not as bad as I've seem it after molts.
