    Fair price for tarantulas?

    @MarkmD Trust me, I won't be away from the hobby for long :) It was already heartbreaking to give my friend my GBB, cobalt, and P. platyomma. I'm hoping to get back into the hobby as soon as I can. On the plus side, it's kind of exciting to think about starting fresh and what T's I would...

    Fair price for tarantulas?

    Thanks for the replies guys. I guess I'm really just looking for a good home for the Ts. I'm not looking to get back the money I put into them or anything like that. I'm more looking to sell them at a reasonable price and so I'm curious as to what a reasonable price would be. If I don't get the...

    Fair price for tarantulas?

    So I've hit a very sad point in my life. I'm about to graduate college and I need to clean out my tarantula collection. Hopefully once I figure out where I'm going to be after college I can get back into the hobby, but for now I need to sell my tarantulas. I have a few left and am wondering if...

    This is why i do not trust pet stores..

    Fortunately, it seems like the video has a bad enough like:dislike ratio that new tarantula owners will think twice before accepting the advice presented in this video

    Crabs?

    Don't know if this is a good place to post but...I'm already heavy into the tarantula hobby and now after buying 4 halloween crabs, I'm interested in getting more crabs. Does anybody here know a good place where I can buy crabs online? Thanks.

    DIY Arboreal Enclosures

    I currently have a 4" pinktoe in a 8" by 8" by 8" exo terra cube enclosure. It's starting to look a bit small for him height-wise (and that's the most important part) so I'm thinking of rehousing. I don't know if I have enough money for one of the taller exo terras so I was wondering what...

    OBT ownership?

    I really really want an OBT and was wondering if they are significantly more defensive than other OW species. As far as OW species go, I have a 4-5 in. P. regalis, a 4-5 in. H. vonwirthi, and a 2 in. H. lividum. Do you guys think this is enough preparation for getting an OBT? I have yet to be...

    Unhealthy tarantula?

    So here's the situation...I have a H. vonwirthi that I left with a friend for the past month or so, and during that time, the tank began to grow mold and mushrooms and got really gross. When I got back and got it out of the old cage, I found that the abdomen seemed incredibly small. In all other...

    First cricket experience--disgusted!

    My crickets smell awful so I wish I could switch to roaches...unfortunately I live in Florida where keeping roaches is illegal because of the fear of them becoming an invasive species. I would do mealworms, but I think I read somewhere that they're really high in fat so shouldn't be used...

    Best online tarantula stores?

    Well I mean 35 bucks for the GBB is a good deal and then 35 bucks shipping is pretty standard. But yeah, I'm looking into some other Ts as well, since I don't wanna buy the GBB and then realize there were other things I wanted to buy online. Because paying 35 dollars shipping for two seperate...

    Reptile Super Show: Pomona, CA

    It's lot of fun :) I went to my first reptile convention earlier this year in March. I didn't know what to expect going into it, but it completely exceeded my expectations. Lots of herps, but also a good deal of tarantulas/scorpions/centipededs, all that good stuff. They also sell feeders and...

    screen vents vs. drilling holes

    Oh, so a holesaw is just a piece that attaches to the end of a drill? Because I do have a drill (Sorry I'm not too power-tool savvy lol) And also I'm wondering, are the vents better than holes for letting some humidity out? I'm concerned because I live in Florida, so excessive humidity can be a...
