I'd go if it wasn't run by someone that got over 90 counts of animal cruelty against her

Absolutely gorgeous! Thanks for sharing.

I make the holes in all my fossorial cages myself. I put holes halfway between the top of the substrate and the lid. I also have holes on the lid. They don't get airholes in the ground in the wild.

First three things that came to mind were A. geniculata, Psalmopoeus sp., and Lasiodora parahybana. All are fairly cheap, generally eat well, and grow pretty fast.

Who here can tell me what species live in Colorado? Where might I be able to find them? I'm trying to gather a representative or two of all groups of arachnids. Thanks -Ash

Anywhere I can find what I want. I like the ability to check everywhere. Always keep your options open because it could benifit you greatly in the long run.

E. uatuman sling finished molt in about 25 minutes. Went from .75"-1"

Very different thread than what I thought I was posting in. But hey, I haven't seen that H. mac in a while :smuggrin:

I believe that is a highland, although with how many times they've been crossed, there is no guarantee. But yellow on the legs really stands out. I've seen a few pictures of both forms in the wild and there is a huge difference, one of which is that highland appeared to have more yellow on their...

Hmm I may have to check that out. Their prices are high enough here that I personally wouldn't risk it unless I got them for fairly cheap. May just be me though.

I've had 3 escapees. The first was an H. mac that was never found, though I did find molts for a few months that reached up to 2". The second is when I had holes too large and my Tapinauchenius plumupes escaped. Found her on the ceiling a couple of weeks later. She also escaped one other time...

While I don't agree that these guys aren't communal, I would like to note that you should NOT give them lots of space so the risk of becoming territorial is reduced.

Yeah just a freshly molted cricket.

The thing that I'm currently using since my little $10 microscope broke is a really nice one that my AP Bio teacher lets me use in exchange for molts and other things like that.

Pamphobeteus insignis. Fairly large, nice coloration even in adult females, and I can set them up in lovely tropical vivariums.

Is there any visual difference between P. cavimanus and imperator? I bought a small female inperator a while back from someone reputable, but someone says the one I have isn't imperator.

If your profile is true, you've been around for quite a while and you should know what you're doing. I think T. blondi is absolutely stunning because of it's bulkiness, but stirmi is a far better choice because they are readily available, fairly cheap, and can get as massive if not slightly...

Wait a second! This is "Tarantula Chat," not Ctenid Chat. The only dangerous Ctenid is the genus Phoneutria as a whole. Every other genus and species belonging to Ctenidae that is not Phoneutria hurts when it bites and is quick, but not medically significant. I say all tarantulas vary greatly...

Was I the only one that saw that thing about the guys who went to go find Ptericochilus murinus and found them almost exclusively in tree holes? That would make them arboreal. You're ready OP.

So many people. If you have a Facebook you can join groups and meet people. I occasionally have things to sell but can often get things people want. serpantarium and moonlight mantids is good. Mantid pets, mantid forum classifieds, hobbyists.
