Blue fang and c. fimbriatus both molted today so happy that fimbriatus is out of 2i it took its sweet time haha

G. pulcripes molted last night. It's growing faster than I expected

What are your temperatures like? If it isn't the chemicals it's most likely an overly warm environment that's causing your issue whether it's DKS or not

I think the fact that there's room to be on either side of this argument with all the keepers and strives this hobby has made is all the evidence I need that T's won't respond to conditioning. To put it simply, if in fact tarantulas can be conditioned, why after however many years that the hobby...

Even if only certain species are banned in Florida I'm pretty sure most roach breeders refuse to ship to Florida in the first place

my tiny h. Vonworthi molted at some point in the past 2 days :)

My little gbb sling molted last night it's still in the sling color phase

Don't B. albiceps have red hair on the abdomen? It doesn't seem like yours does at least from the angle of the pictre

My lp sling molted

Just make sure the substrate level is high since you say the nhandu is 5 inches, I'd make the distance from the top of the substrate to the lid of the tank about 5.5-6 inches

My little b. albo molted in the last day or too

I'd just like to throw in that my x.intermedia has very purple legs after this last molt take a look:

My x.intermedia molted some time this past week and has gotten positively huge and my a.genic had a good clean molt Sunday afternoon

I believe they need to be sexually mature in order to sex them. Once they are mature, it's my understanding that you have to look at their terminal segment. If the terminal segment is of equal width as the rest of the segments you've got a male, if not female

That's almost certainly poo and don't piss it off or it'll aim it's poo cannon at you next time ;)

Not to jack the thread or anything, but on the subject of I.mira, ivymike, or anyone for that matter, do you know if they will accept a premade burrow then create their trapdoor over it? And to the OP bethlehems a great town but I'm only there during the school year :/

Sounds like a chilobrachys would be perfect for you! They can be kept very similar to the obt except when you fill it's water dish, just let it overflow into the substrate a little. If I were to suggest a particular species, I'd say fimbriatus there stunning!!! As for who to get one from, I...

My M.balfouri is almost always out. It has it's burrow but the slightest disturbance and it crawls right out to see what's going on. Haplos are one thing and I can see why those who aren't big fans of them calling them pet holes but the term doesn't fit this species

That's pretty creative! I definitely will try

I'd be interested to see what that entailed if you don't mind explaining
