    Anybody collect pre-2000 backissues of the American Tarantula Society Forum (magazine)?

    I have the ATS Forum Magazines beginning from Volume 1, Number 2 in 1992 through Volume 16, Number 4. There are, I'm sure, a few issues missing, as I was a member of the ATS during those times and they mailed the Forum magazine to me at my address, and every once in a while, I didn't receive...

    Jacumba T 5

    I found this spider near Jacumba, California on 1/10/18 wandering around in the early evening hours. For a tarantula, it's quite small. It is definitely a male, but I have no idea what kind it is. For that matter, I'm not even positive it's a tarantula. Anyone have any ideas?

    Urticating Hair Allergy

    O.K., to further complicate the issue/question, here's a follow up...Does anyone know if, over a period of time, one can develop an increasing sensitivity to urticating hairs? The reason I ask, is because I've kept Ts for 26 years now, and at first, I didn't have a problem at all with...

    Well I'll Be A Whip Spider's Uncle!

    Some Pics Here are some pics I took of the younguns'. They aren't the best in the world, but I hope you they are good enough to get an idea of their size. I'd like to start selling these, as they are eating and seem to be doing well. Anyone interested?

    Fellow E Cyanognathus keepers

    I know I never see mine. Once in a while I surprise her, but as soon as she senses my presence, back down the "tube" she goes. My feeling is, as long as she's doing well, and the crickets keep disappearing when I put them in with her, then I'm not going to mess it up. I assume she's content.

    Well I'll Be A Whip Spider's Uncle!

    You may be correct about it being mold. I'm not sure. That was one of the drawbacks in raising the humidity - uneaten parts of crickets seemd to get fuzzy - moldy - fairly quickly. FYI, everyone, Mom, Dad, and babies, are all doing fine. Those little ones are FAST!!!!! They are eating...

    Well I'll Be A Whip Spider's Uncle!

    Anyone know at what age/size would it be O.K. to start selling these little guys off? They are doing well and I think it's time to start letting them go, but I want to be sure. I just don't need an extra 30 or so of them!

    What is this.....?

    It IS definitely a moth pupa of some sort, and they do overwinter in the ground. Can't say for sure if it is a Sphinx moth pupa though. My experience with sucessfully hatching moth cocoons/pupae has shown that keeping them cold (or cool) is key to their emergence in the Spring. Good luck!

    Well I'll Be A Whip Spider's Uncle!

    Thanks for the post ENODETNEPER. I recently upped the temperature in the room I keep her in, as well as the humidity. That appears to have been the thing that did it for her. I will continue to post here on their progress, but I'm still looking for any hints, tips, advice, or help that anyone...

    Well I'll Be A Whip Spider's Uncle!

    Uh oh. My amblypygi girl surprised me today. When I went to feed her, and her live in roommate, who just happens to be a male, I found her covered with a whole bunch of little ones! I didn't even know she was pregnant! She's been living in the same tank as the male for about a year now...
