I found that a really fine drill bit for my dremel works AWESOME for my slings' enclosures. BTW, don't jump the gun if you aren't sure what someone meant by a comment... it's hard to judge people's tone via text :)

It's warm in central Florida! Merry Christmas!!!

There's something about arboreals coloring that is just amazing! I like both, but I prefer larger bodied terrestrial T's the best right now...

I would! $60 is very expensive for shipping (did you get a large vase or something with it?) , and to turn around and send them with priority is just wrong. Then you get something that wasn't what you paid for! Now with a lack of response from the seller.... That's not good business!

But where did it come from?

I purchased some 1/4" thick cell cast acrylic from delviesplastic.com. They cut to the dimensions you specify, and if you order like 8, you end up spending about $12 a lid after shipping! I have three sitting over humid enclosures atm, with no bowing.

Lol, well I went ahead and put pothos down the sides of the tank, and I put drier substrate down the middle. She wandered around on the glass for awhile, but this morning she was sitting on the "ground ". I put in about 5" of substrate, but I don't like filling it more than that as it makes the...

Very nice work! What kind of caulking are you guys using?

I am surprised nobody chimed in about how they keep their Lasiodora species!

Well you have a few options here for ventilation. You can get an aquarium and a cheap screen lid, an aquarium and make a nice lid out of acrylic, or get one from petsmart with a sliding screen lid built in! I personally think a 3" ceramic dish would be fine for a water dish, but is there any web...

Lol, that's kind of funny to me. They do some pretty incredible things to survive huh? I wish I could stick to walls and flatten myself completely to squeeze into tight spaces...

Yeah, if a tarantula chooses to molt in a certain way at a certain time, you just have to trust that it knows what it is doing!

Poxicator makes some really good points here! Awesome job man!

I was boiling a half-log hide to use in my Lasiodora difficilis' new enclosure, when I noticed the bark looks an awful lot like pine bark. Does anyone know what kind of wood they use to make them? Google was of no use...

I actually think this is an interesting topic! Pink toes typically hang out at the top of whatever enclosure they are in, yet some people insist on a 2' tall enclosure! They adapt to any environment they are placed in, so as long as they are given enough room to eat, web, and molt they will...

More than likely it's poo. Use a wet q tip to clean the mouthparts and see if it comes back.

Yup! I personally like the colors of the difficilis better, but I really like the klugi too!

Sold as 4", received as 5" lol. I know the tank wouldn't be too big, but the plants will add humidity..

So I received my Lasiodora difficilis today, and she is larger than I expected. I would like to put her in a 10 gallon aquarium with acrylic lid, four 2" vents on top, and some golden pothos. Has anyone kept the Lasiodora Sp. in planted enclosures? I have read that people keep them like roseas...
