    Help with Chromatopelma cyaneopubescens (Greenbottle Blue)

    Very nice choice, the GBB naturally in it's environment doesn't require much humidity at all when they are adults, the spiderlings would need some humidity and then progress into the lower amounts. Some owners on this board even got rid of the water dish and they put some droplets on the webbing...

    Spidermania on Animal Planet Tonight at 7pm

    You are welcome! :D I'm thinking the gravel setups were for TV since they had no tops, I saw a correct setup when his wife was feeding one. It wasn't a bad show but I expected a little better, I know he made other specials as well. I'll look into that and see if I can get my hands on them.

    Spidermania on Animal Planet Tonight at 7pm

    Count me in as well, I couldn't stand the "poisonous" tags the narrator used at all. This show was originally aired in 2002 so it was nice to see the reflection of new things at that time (GBB in natural habitat and the B Vagans in Florida). All the things Rick stated were great to hear. Only...

    Spidermania on Animal Planet Tonight at 7pm

    I just saw this while browsing through my TV listings! Here is TV Guide's description of it : "Profiling arachnologist Rick West and some of the 300 tarantulas he shares his home with. Also: West travels to Mexican caves and Venezuelan rain forests in search of tarantulas; and myths and legends...

    are all b. vagans wierd?

    Your vagans is enjoying it's home as others pointed out. If a T is able to come out and stay out for a while, IT'S COMFY! :D My aureostriata is out majority of the day either in a mini crater it dug up or in a corner cozy. It only huddles up a bit if I go do maintenance or it will choose to walk...

    Species Grammostola rosea (a.k.a. Grammostola cala)

    I second that, they are beauties and highly underrated. I think people overlook them because they are so common in the hobby. Your rosea looks great, just give it some good depth of 100% peat moss, from Scotts or so, make sure there are no fertilizers on the label of it just 100% peat moss.:D

    Here's a couple pictures of my first T

    Looks exactly how mine looks, size, colors, etc. My aureostriata is my first T as well, wonderful choice. I didn't take any chances handling it but it's a carebear to work with during cleaning and maintenance. :D

    Animal Planet's "The Real Lost World"

    I agree, that thing was surely strung up!

    my rosie got p!$$#& at me for taking webbing!

    Good thinking, I had that idea in mind as well if I had a defensive T. I'll do that with my two fairly docile ones as well. Something like a clean, sterile dropper only used to fill the water and give water I think is ideal. Some T owners also use a unused turkey baster as well. I know turkey...
