A teddy bear hamster to my t. blondi in college. The hamster was a gift from the ex, she thought it was cute, woody thought it was tasty =)

Mine was a starburst baboon tarantula that I bought while I was in college(wow he really went to school? =) ). I don't think it was a p. murinus cause it wasn't orange, so I really don't know what it was, but it was mean, and liked to burrow a lot, it dug itself into a potted plant that I gave...

To save on rising fuel costs, you take your males to be loaned out to work with you and drop them off on your way home. You really know you have a problem when your co-workers notice your problem too. I *never* bring a cooler to work (which held to males going out for loan) and they just had...

First off, sorry for your loss. I agree with the industrial chemicals thing. Is it possible that the carpets were cleaned and those chemicals were the culprit. The other thought that comes to mind is a co-worker/cleaning person that doesn't like spiders and did the can of raid spray to the...

Well, mine is kinda psycho too. My wife gets nervous when the lid is open on the cage and that cats are prowling around. I have seen several threat posses over the past year, but the beauty of the creature is worth it. Mine rarely runs/darts/whatever and has never escaped, except once when I...

Well mine is pretty nice, although I can always tell when it's in premolt cause it gives me a threat display when I open up its cage to put water in it's dish. Mine also for whatever reason "chews" on it's cork bark where the bark is close to the lid. However, as fast as they are, mine has...

Okay, it's been quite a week overall, but today I came home to find my little p. tigris(is it a tigriswessel (spelling) now?) upside down in his milk cap waterdish with several legs hanging over the side of the dish. There was a little bit of water in the dish too. The waterdish is hot glued...

Well, I have two of them, and I like 'em. However, they don't get very big, or atleast my male didn't. He's probably 2" at most. I got them at around 1 inch, and they had their adult colors already. Anyway, if you want it, just get it! Just make sure that it's a female, otherwise it could...

My little/growing cyriopagapus sp. blue loves to make a vertical tunnel with his peat/vermiculite mixture. I know that they are arboreal, but for whatever reason, it made a tunnel, even with a structure to hide/climb on. It(no sex yet, still too small for my eyes) has been doing that since I...

Well, I only have one avic. a braunshauseni, so I am not an avic. expert. However, mine did go down to the floor to get his little pinheads when he was really little, so maybe just be patient, although I know how hard that can be when they are so small. Also, I think that some people have feed...

It appears to me that your avic. avic is molting. Sometimes spiders do molt in the sideways position. The abdomen does not seem very large though, and the legs are not curled under the body of the spider, so for now, just leave it alone. I would imagine that it'll take about 12 hours for it...

There are several reputable dealers with reviews on the boards. I assume that you are willing to buy online, or over the phone, and I also assume that you mean a t. blondi. I also hope that you possess the skills and the discipline to take care of this species. They have high humidity/high...

I think I need a new camera, or need to read my manual, cause I can't get pictures even close to as good as yours. Anyway, it almost looks like a goliath bird eater to me. It looks like a wild caught one that I purchased from a ma and pop pet store many moons ago. The thing that throws me is...

It sounds like one of those little biospheres(well that's what I picture in my head) where everything is in balance, light, humidity, and some live plants. However, the thing that would concern me would be mites from dead prey that might be impossible to find/remove. Other than that, if given...

The only one that I could easily handle, my rosehair is rather psycho, and my a. seemani is always down in his hole, so that one is out too. All the others are either really fast, or really aggressive, dictating a hands off cleaning/maintenance program =).

Well, since I am a plumber, and frequently work in areas that have been abated, or *will* be abated, I think that it is safe to say that the company that is doing the work will make you remove the animals, as they don't want the liability of them being there during the process. Although there...

Yeah, we are presently working on our house, as you can see by the drywall and drywall screws behind the cabinet, I don't know what the stain on the old nasty carpet is, but the previous owner died in the house, so who knows? :eek: I'll work on side pictures when I get it moved out of it's...

Well, I made a cabinet, and am quite pleased with the way it turned out. For heat it has a 100 Watt infrared heater in the bottom, controlled via a thermostat at the top of the cabinet. It also has a 18 inch flourescent(spelling?) light on the top to for everyones viewing pleasure. There is a...

I usually have atleast 1/2 of my collection in premolt/molt at the same time, and it *always* hits after I buy a 1000 pack of crickets. Then they are ready to eat after most of the crickets are already feed to my wifes veiled chameleons. Mine are also in different stages of development, some...
