Dont know if Im doing this right. Im a total beginner in the tarantula hobby. Got a whiteknee from a friend of mine in november 2023. As it grew i decided to buy a new enclosure. i went to the only Pet store that sells Tarantula equipment in my town. they recommended EXO terra 30x30x30 so i...
Judging by the fact you're saying it's retreating as far away from movement as possible and covering its carapace with its legs (stress position I'd assume) it's very possible he's still just settling in. They sometimes take a while especially if they're larger, in my experience.
(Slightly...
...day I bought it but refuses all food. It also hung from the top of the enclosure for the first few days of having it. I currently own a Bahia grey bird eater and previously owned a whiteknee sling (who passed after moulting) and have had no problems with them what so ever and are really docile.
Either is possible If the mesh lid didn’t fit well, it should’ve never been used. It should be pretty easy to check if it buried itself away. Because. the containers crystal clear.
humidity is irrelevant you just don’t want the soil, soggy wet.
My husband and I got a Brazilian whiteknee sling as a freebie. We set up a small enclosure with a few inches of dirt for the little guy who was quite tiny and timid. To not spook him too much, we put the vile he came in inside the enclosure and waited for him to come out, using a dead bug as...
Hi everyone!!
I got my first tarantula earlier this month. She is a Giant WhiteKnee Tarantula. I understand that her growth is med/fast... what size or dimension should her adult enclosure be?
Thanks in advance!! Here's a picture of her. Her name is Lumi :)
My sling chaco golden-knee has finished molted around 2 hours ago. He's very white/pale, with a very dark abdomen, his molt is curled up beside him. Around 1 and a half week prior to molting, he dug inside the substrate and buried himself in (sealed the entrance to the burrow). Now I know I...
Perfect example of being patient... Just noticed legs sticking out of Cyriopagopus Lividus's (Cobalt Blue) Enclosure... Haven't seen it for a month and a half til now.
I will continue to give it more time to harden up etc.
Once it starts coming completely out and hunting and looks good, this...
Yes that's part of the worry but if op didn't know about not digging a fossorial t up I worry about interactions like rehousing, is op prepared for a fast t with attitude if you push your luck by idk digging the t up.
I just think any t should be researched before getting it , I researched for...
...or so ago but had to give them up where I lived. So I started back at 0 just last year. So far I have a gbb, carabena vers, aviculara aviculara 3 asian fawns, kaeng krachen, discolus blue, giant whiteknee, nhandu chromatus, salmon pink birdeater, and 2 others I can't remember off the top my...
I have 3 tarantulas all different age, salmon pink female juvi, unsexed giant whiteknee sling and a female red knee 3 years ISH. Now the temps in my room are dropping around 10°c (50°f) I do use a heat mat to make sure it doesn't drop below 18°c (64°f). Came in to find them huddled with the...
