    Which Arboreal?

    Again, thanks for the replies :) Whats the opinion on h.maculata? They look amazing... Although the temperament looks a bit on the dodgy side.. I will be using the hands off approach with the T so aggression shouldn't reallly be a major problem.

    Which Arboreal?

    Thanks for all the suggestions :) Not decided which one to get yet though.. An avic is looking like a good choice at the moment.. Trouble is I like the p.irminia too much now and its making it tough !

    Which Arboreal?

    I had a look at the suntiger and this site says its a no no for beginners.. http://homepage.ntlworld.com/the.tarantula.store/care-P.irminia.htm I think they are a beautiful tarantula though.

    How to handle your T

    Kirdec, Man you have some will power! All the numerous animals that I have owned over the years have always gotten the Zelda touch ;) Cant resist it... What is your opinion of them just walking across your hand in their tank? It's not strictly handling but you still have the interaction with...

    How to handle your T

    Hi Kirdec, Just wondering if you have ever held a T? The urge must have gotten to you at some point! Personally I dont hold mine,only the once, knowing my luck they'd bite the hell outta me.. and I dont do the hospital thing :)

    L.Parahybana after a molt.

    Thanks for the replies! Much appreciated. :) The T is now looking a lot better, seems to be a lot stronger and generaly happier. I think I was more stressed than the tarantula actually :8o

    L.Parahybana after a molt.

    Hi, My L.Parahybana molted last night and its acting a little weird. This afternoon it was slouched on its side, with the legs pointed in kinds of directions! I know that after a molt they take a while to harden, but how long does this actually take? Is it a matter of hours or days? At the...

    Pre-molt L. parahybana

    Well my L.Parahybana molted last night with no problems at all :D He/she must have at least doubled in size! Unfortunately the skin was all chewed up and I couldn't determine the sex.. Oh well. Maybe next time.

    Gots me a question.

    A tarantula supplier here in England told me that you can have 2 arboreal species in the same tank.. Not sure that is true though..? Probaby not I reckon :?
