Yes, she was bred in late march. Introduced to the male on two occasions, I saw good insertions both times. Somehow I never really expected to get an egg sack! I have dampened the substrate on the opposite side of her enclosure from where she is. I'm not sure if I should feed her right away or...

My G. aureostriata just dropped a huge egg sack this morning! I am wondering if I should increase the humidity in her tank as I have always kept it quite dry (peat moss substrate). I have read that the eggs can dry out quickly. Also should I feed her right away? I'm not sure if either of these...

Thanks for all the responses, that helped clear things up.

I have heard many people call the Chilean Rose Hair many different scientific names. I have heard G. cala, G. gala and G. rosea. Is there any official scientific name for it, and if there is, what is it? ::::]

Make sure to take the crickets out if there are any in her tank, because if they are hungry, they will sometimes nibble on the tarantula. I'm sure you know that, though! Best luck to your tarantula and you.

I'm going to have to go with new worlds just because the Old Worlds maliciously plot to rip off your head. Yeah right, but still, Old Worlds have a tendency to be more aggresive, mainly do to the lack of urticating hairs on some species.

This question is a hard one. I will just use the 4 tarantulas that I would most like to get. 1. Chromatopelma cyaneopubescens (Greenbottle Blue) 2. Psalmopoeus cambridgei (Trinidad Chevron) 3. Ephebopus cyanognathus (Blue Fang Skeleton) 4. Aphonopelma moderatum (Rio Grande Gold)

I think the title should go to the Blue fang Skeleton, because in each different stage of color it looks pretty. I might say King Baboons, but they are hardly underrated.

I got a Chaco about 2 years ago, and she is very docile. The only time I ever saw her do a warning pose was right after mating, and she mated pretty easily. I have never been bit or flicked at, but I have only taken her out once. She was fasting for a bit, but it was pre-molt. I got a G. Cala a...

Hi everyone, I am getting another tarantula (my third) and I would like to get an Aphonopelma Moderatum. I have heard different things about their temperments, and one website had an ominous "?" next to "temperment". If anyone has one, please let me know how it behaves. ::::]...

Here is my small list: Grammostola Cala (Chilean Rose Hair) Grammostola Aureostriata (Chaco Golden Knee)

Hi, I'm Arachnomaniac. I might keep only Grammostola, but I like A. Moderatum, so I might not. I got a G. Cala a few weeks ago. ::::]
