gotcha! thanks for the help guys! I'll keep you updated on how things go with her!! :)

synyster, thanks for the reply! also do you think she is female because of her size? coloration? or the pedipalps? I've been away from the hobby for sometime due to working so much and finishing up college that I kinda forget these things, lol. catfishrod, thanks for all the info! She's been...

Thanks guys! and thanks for the details catfishrod!!! I just gave mine a new home today! She freaks me out because she springs right into the air! crazy little jumper!!! after putting her into her new home I threw in a few small crickets and we went to town!! such a happy girl now!! Can you tell...

Thanks for the quick replies beetleman and gromgrom!! Much appreciated. I too believe it is Dolomedes, which I read are very similar looking to wolf spiders, hence my uncertainty. I am going to create a habitat for it and was curious if anyone had advice on what type of set up would suit it...

Hey everyone, So the other day I was in my basement looking for a small step ladder and found this HUGE spider lurking 6 inches from my face... I love spiders but it totally caught me by surprise and freaked me out!!! Anyway, I live in Southern New Jersey by Philadelphia and I typically don't...

Then don't read it, and don't post on it if that's what you think. It's as simple as that. Don't be an <edit>. Thanks.

Well I did a search on here and found some information, so you guys don't really have to reply, although MORE information would be great! So, I'll also ask on here, Who else has a Haitian Brown? Mike

The subject of this thread says it all. I can't find a care sheet, or any information really on a Haitian Brown (Phormictopus cancerides) online or anything. Anyone have any information? Thanks. Mike

Ok I don't have too much information, this is my friends tarantula and they are not a member on the boards so I am doing him a favor and posting this. He was going to feed his T and notice this white stingy stuff coming out of it's mouth. I have no idea what it is, and was hoping someone might...

My rose hair does that all the time and I've had her for about 4 years. She isn't kicking hairs, I'd assume she does just have an "itch" or something. Rose hairs are odd!

I'm not sure if this has been discussed on here before, but I did a search and couldn't find anything... So I was wondering if you raised two slings from the SAME sac, meaning they are brothers and sisters, would mating them result in deforamlities, genetic disabilities, or anything like that...

It's been like this for about 2 weeks, no signs of mold at all, I've been checking, and I'll continue to keep my eye out for it. I've never had a problem with mites ever (knock on wood), but I'm keeping my eye out for those bastards too. Thanks, I can't wait for her to molt! :) oh and the...

Ok so my T. blondi spiderling which is about 2" is most likely in pre-molt. She is refusing food, and her abdomen got really black this past week, so I am positive she is going to molt. My question is, do you think that it is too humid for her? I mean condensation is forming on the side of the...

i don't think it's those, i've noticed those before, i've had tarantulas for the past 5 years. I know when their claws are out :) i didn't mean that urticating hairs grew on their feet, but from being in her enclouser and steping on them they may have been just like stuck on her feet and rubbed...

Becca that is amazing. I like that a lot, I think I'm going to have to steal that method of keeping track of my T's! :) Thanks for sharing! -Mike

After i handle my G. rosea, which isn't too often, the palms of my hands usually itch, and she doesn't even kick any hairs at me... my palms just always itch after holding her, there must be some urticating hairs on her feet or on her that just rub off on me.. It only lasts a few minutes at the...

when i find spiders in my house, i look at them, and then just walk away... haha. i figured they were smarted enough to find a way in, they can stay. They can be in my bedroom and i just let them be, i'm going to end up with spiders bites one morning, haha oh well. i love spiders toooo much! my...

Haha. oh man I'm an idiot. :8o haha, thank you... all better :)

Hey everyone, I plan on ordering new T's sometime this week. I've been in the hobby for a little over 3 years and I am trying to expand my collection since I don't really have that many T's. These are the species I have: 3 - G. rosea's 1 - B. smithi 1 - T. blondi 1 - P. murinus 1 - B...

The same substrate has been in there for the past few months, and she's been fine with it. Just these past few weeks she started climbing up and sitting in the tree. I think she might just be exploring, because things are starting to warm up with the weather maybe she's becoming more active...
