Just want to know
Can I have them in the same inclisure as slings and raise them with each other or does that not workNo they dont, often there are lots of burrows of same speicies located in certain areas, but that is not comunal. They dont share each other burrows no!
NO. NO. NO.Can I have them in the same inclisure as slings and raise them with each other or does that not work
Ok I’ll it one to a cageNO. NO. NO.
Ok thanksMy murderess A. chalcodes would love a few enclosure mates to uh, get to know better. But yeah, no. As a general rule most tarantulas cannot be kept communally.
Ok thanks I dint want to learn the hard wayUnless you want to watch "nature red in tooth and claw" as one tarantula inevitably predates upon its smaller sac mates, the answer is never ever, absolutely not, or just. simply. NO.
Thank you for the list I’d that the only T that can be in a communityI've created this simple flow chart to help you decide whether or not you should keep a species communally

Yeah, that's the only one.Thank you for the list I’d that the only T that can be in a community
Are M Balfouri expensive or are they cheapYeah, that's the only one.
Some people (and some very unscrupulous sellers) will try to tell you that N. incei, Avic and Pokie communals work but I've never seen one that hasn't resulted in cannibalism (the amount of Pokie communals I've seen go tits-up is astounding yet people still insist on doing them) and anyone who claims to have a successful one on the go is just playing the waiting game.
Tarantulas are not communal/social animals.
Any way I’m getting 6 desert blonde slings for 34$Yeah, that's the only one.

Probably expensive on your side of the pond (American prices are absurd compared to ours), slings are about £15 a pop hereAre M Balfouri expensive or are they cheap
Actually 15 euros per sling times 5 is 75usdProbably expensive on your side of the pond (American prices are absurd compared to ours), slings are about £15 a pop here
£ = Pounds sterling. The UK isn't opted into the single currency for the EU (€)Actually 15 euros per sling times 5 is 75usd
You aren't considering keeping a communal of an old world tarantula species, are you? I knew that someone mentioning M.balfouri was going to make this thread go in this direction, I knew it.Are M Balfouri expensive or are they cheap
M. balfouri are quite pricey in the US. Compared to the UK or EU, the US has M. balfouri going for $60 per sling. If you want a communal it's going to be hundreds of dollars, also note that M. balfouri are OW T.'s. So they're not beginner friendly and are for the more experienced. Don't be crazy and get a T. just because of some unique qualities if you don't have experience with T.'s or OW T.'s in general.Are M Balfouri expensive or are they cheap
