Say hello to Charlotte, my black African trap-door! This is a picture I took of her while we relocated her to her new container! She's grown drastically within the year and is looking marvelous! She resides in an open insect community tank where she has access to several food sources that fall off of the palm leaves that shadow over her container!
I am a new arachnid enthusiast still learning to take care of spiders. I prefer true spiders, but my very first spiders I owned were dwarf pumpkin patches and dwarf tigers. After my two had passed away from age, I decided to leave the tarantula family in things more interesting. I hope you enjoy these two photos of her!
I'm used to seeing Black African Trapdoors being very black and stout. But mine is about a year-old now, assuming it's a female, and her legs are very pale as well as her thorax being elongated. If you have any advice you can give me on improving her health or lifestyle, please let me know! I'm still learning!
I bought her from a vendor at a reptile convention, because for several months I have been hunting down black trapdoors to replace the loss of my two older dwarf Ts. She showed me (she was bad at her service so didn't talk to me at all but sell the poor thing) that it was a black trapdoor. It's been a year since then and it looked BEAUTIFUL. Unfortunately I couldn't take any pictures at the time so there isn't any before and after. If you could tell me if anything is wrong or right, thank you!
