    Appeal of Fossorial Ts & Trapdoor Spiders?

    One that you'll likely never see above ground is the one mentioned by @8 legged above - Sahydroaraneus raja. They're gorgeous T's, dark iridescent blue when viewed in the correct light, but in my experience they won't ever come to the surface. I always had a window into the burrow mine made...

    Appeal of Fossorial Ts & Trapdoor Spiders?

    ...Pelinobius muticus (these grow VERY slowly, so paying a little more for a well stated sling or juvenile is totally justifiable), Cyriopagopus lividus (the blue on their legs sticking out of a burrow is awesome), Chilobrachys fimbriatus (gorgeous T's), Ceratogyrus darlingi or marshalli (I...

    Information for size of air vent holes for the new enclosures of my Ts

    Got lucky and took a shot of the C. lividus (seems to have a 0.2" carapace) meanwhile the P. murinus has a 0.12" carapace but the Pic I took is bad. I re-did the holes and now they are 0.04" wide

    Information for size of air vent holes for the new enclosures of my Ts

    ...that my Pterinochilus murinus RCF is fine. However since the substrate was too dump I decided to rehouse it and my other sling (Cyriopagopus lividus) in a bigger container of size 3.5"x2.3"x2.3". I made holes with 0.12" of size, but are they big enough for an escape for two 0.4" slings? (they...

    Appeal of Fossorial Ts & Trapdoor Spiders?

    Update to this spider (now officially named Ampha), as she has finally decided to go fossorial and dug all the way to the bottom. She does still pop back up to the surface with some regularity, especially if crickets are involved.

    Enclosure I just put together for an incoming Pokie

    cleaning up after a relatively clean t is simple, I have never used, or seen a real need to use a clean up crew...please dont feel like springtails are a critical piece.

    Enclosure I just put together for an incoming Pokie

    ...been reading that they require more moisture than your T actually needs so it may be pointless. I could see it being really beneficial for C Lividus though. My P Met, P Ruf, and P Irm are out of the delicate stage so idk if I should just forgo that idea. Maintenance isn't an issue. They...

    A non-fossorial fossorial

    Thiri is one of the newer additions to my collection (got her in early October). As seen here, she STILL has not burrowed in spite of being one of the most dedicated fossorials among fossorial Ts…. 0.1.0 (out of 0.1.3) Cyriopagopus lividus

    Appeal of Fossorial Ts & Trapdoor Spiders?

    ...issues aren’t a concern. In fact even some obligate fossorials can show this tendency in captivity: I got a sexed female subadult C. lividus a couple months ago (as if I didn’t already have slings of the same species), and she still hasn’t burrowed. She stays on webbed substrate, drinks...

    Hello, this species was sold to me as a C. Lividus. At first I thought it has no coloration due to being too young but now the size of it indicates, that its simply not Lividus. Some people suggested that it might be longipes/vonwirthi/minax. What do you guys think?

    Bad molt - Cyriopagopus lividus

    My 3” Cyriopagopus lividus had bad molt and lost three legs on left side.. it’s last leg on the left side is crooked. Right side seems to be ok, all four legs look fine. Any suggestions? The spider looks exhausted after the struggle and barely moves.
