well i had the same experience but my G.Rose was the same friendly and i even let my kid brother use it for show and tell. This was one of my first T that i got back in 97 or so but once it full muture it started to get agressive and defensive so know i feed it and leave it alone so i would...
Well my first T was B.smithi and at first she was skittish but not shy because when she got about 3 to 4 inches i got her a 2.5 gal tank with a coconut and she would never hide, she would always be out until she molted then she will hide in the coconut. she has never given me the attack post or...
First what type of T do you have and what size? I would not recommend using a heat lamp because it could get to hot for the T or you could forget to turn it off and you would have cooked T. but T can not detect the infrared light

well i tried it but for some of my T it did not work becasue for the ones that need humi i tape some of the lid butwith the sun shining on the cages it increases the temp and the humi so i did not know if too humi was good so instead i used a uv light but that is just me.
Well my rose does the same but when she does not want them she will kill them web them and put them in the opposite of the tank from where she is at but if she is going to eat them later she will be close to the bolus
Hey guys I am just wondering why so many people are collecting tarantulas, I started with 2 and now I have 23 T and I am going to the Lee Waston reptile swap to buy more but why is this hobby so addictive. Is not like the tarantula will show any affection like a dog or cat but yet I collect...
i thought the same way as u smof that a bigger tank is better but it is not, i keep my B. smit that is 4.5" in a 2.5 gal and it is doing better then when i had her in a 20gal. In the smaller tank you could better regulat the temp and humid.
Well the same thing happen to me but with my snake. I bought a log from the petstore and i did not steralize it because i thought it was clean but it turns out that mites could lay eggs in the wood and the eggs would hatch when the log gets warm up like by my heat lamp. But mites are either...
i have an 1" B vagans and i feed him small crickets about half his sizes put one day they did not have any small crickets so i tried a med crickets which was about the same or alittle bit bigger and my B vagans ated with no problem.
first of all thanks for the help about why my Goliath Pinktoe was not eating as the reason was that it was getting ready to molt it took about a month. but today early in the morning i notice that the top of her head where the eyes are it has been peeled back and i see the new eyes but i took a...
hi guy,
I got a Avicularia braunshauseni (Goliath Pinktoe) on november 5, 2005 and unitl today December 1 it has not eaten. I have tired pin head crickets, fruit fly. I also bought other T's on the same day and size and they are eating about every 4 day or so. The abdomen of the...
Hello, this is Omar representing Chicago, IL. I bought my first Tarantula about 3 years ago, which was a Chilean Rose hair. I became hooked but every time i went to a pet store they had the same tarantulas the pinktoe or the Rose hair or the starburst baboon and i did not felt like ordering...
if you live by chicago,IL, you can go to Lee Watson Reptile swap, http://www.reptileswap.com/, There are two tarantula venders that i buy who are Botar By Eight (http://www.botarby8s.com/) and Theraphosid Breeding Project. Both have great T's at good prices.
well i had a B. smithi spiderling and i did not have the modern center air system so my room was always cooler. The heater was in the living room and i kept my spider in my room which had a temp of mid 70 and my B. smithi did just find and know she is about 4.5inch and still growing.
i have a male OBT and every time i get the water dish it runs into it's home of webbing it made. I think you should get one you will be fine as long as you be careful and use common sense
