I agree, doesn't look like vagans to me either, My Vagans @1" had black legs & carapace. It seems there are a lot of Hybrids of this spider and it is an old argument on these boards so, I will just leave it at that.

petsmart and petco do not sell cork bark.

I put my P. Regalis in the same size tank and she wasn't 3'' at the time and it worked out great ....no stress on the spidy and I didn't get bit.....what you have will work great so don't worry. I would drill out the air holes tho.....:) Good Luck and you will really like P. Regalis they are my...

It is a MM Aphonopelma sp Arizona Blond(Chalcodes) or a variation. Take him back to where he was caught and release him so he can score some girls T's that's his job now and he won't live long so let him do his thing. :)

Welcome!! You will like this forum.

i give'em live food if not small pull the legs off the crickets. I mist the walls of the tank AND offer a small bottle cap of water. I use a small pill vile for its hide. Its fun to watch these spiders grow up.

I have a 6" P. Regalis that just did it twice in one month which was last month.

No photos but I have A. New River adult female, A. Flagstaff Orange adult female, A. Payson Juvi unsexed. I like them!

I don't remember where I read this but it said 1 in 4 slings are female.....for what its worth.

You will see a black spot on the top of the rump when it goes into pre-molt and it will refuse food. Mist the tank walls a little bit to help the spider molt. I also use a bottle cap as a water dish with a very small rock in the cap as well as the spray bottle on the walls....don't over do it...

We have all done this BUT its a bad idea.The LPS will only replace the Tarantula with another of the same and it will go on an on.

These grow very slow(Aphonopelma sp.) having said that what is the Temp in the room where the sling is? Higher Temps may help speed things up and also how much you feed the sling. The only Aphonopelma sling I have had was A.Payson and it went from a tiny speck to a juvi size spider in one...

They really look nice don't they! I sold my female about a week ago and had to have another one 3/4" sling....they are fun to raise. As an adult my B.Smithi was a pet rock so I like them as slings they are starting to get pricey as adults $200 unsexed here in Phoenix LPS.....yikes! Out of all my...

I use a 10 gallon Petco fish tank $10 then I added a plexi top/lid w/hardware home depot total cost about $20....This is what I have my Pokie in and my Avic Avic....pink toe not in the same tank of course. These fish tanks work very well for the tree climbers

It's pre-molt....i have one that does the same thing and it's a sling but i had an adult that did the same just before a molt....don't worry

The one I have is very sweet almost a pet rock....use A. Chalcodes care sheet....I think its the same spider just a color form of A. Chalcodes....rust color rump is all JMHO tho...

First, I'm gonna give you some advise that others won't..... I got a pokie after i had been in the hobby 2 years... i got a P. Regalis 1" sling( Female). Well, she was so fast it freaked me out but as time went by and she got bigger things became easy for me....I got better! Now, I have other...
