Love this product. Bug burger is the best!

I'm not even going to ask how a timber rattlesnake got loose in your truck! That's sort of like asking how an OBT ended up free-ranging in my bedroom for 2 months. Sh** happens, right?

Well break a leg, as we say in the theater world...though not in the arachnid world, I notice.

I've been off the boards for a while, and it doesn't escape my attention that it's a non-arachnid situation that's got me back on. Spiders are all doing fine, but it occurs to me that y'all are the folks that can best appreciate this. I went to fill one of my galvanized water troughs I use for...

I think a better example would be bites from a copperhead, as opposed to a rattlesnake. Has anyone ever died of a copperhead bite? Not directly. One man died from a heart attack as a result of the stress of being bitten. Probably there are some people out there allergic to Copperhead Venom, but...

I don't think they are a good first pet for small children, or even medium size children who say they want a pet. You can't pet a tarantula. I'd say they are a great backup pet for children who have more interactive animals in their lives. For adults who want a being that doesn't require a great...

Lightening, you really are quite the little agent provocateur, aren't you? You love stirring things up on this forum. You always post things that will upset people and make them worry. I wonder if you're getting enough stimulation in your life? I might recommend skydiving, or possibly you should...

Pre molt is not that delicate a condition. It is perfectly safe to change out her substrate if you do it quickly and without any fuss. I'm not sure who the guy in reptile hunters is, but he's just dead wrong about this regarding spiders and substrate. A lot of them want and need to move soil...

Ha ha ha! I can hear it going "Hy-Yah!"

this is a travesty! Someone must breed this species in Europe! My campy is one of my favorite adults. I absolutely love her. She's always up to something interesting, and she eats like a champ! Also, she's just beautiful. Wazzup, Europe??? Jump on it!

I live in your world. I have a rosea that I'm beginning to think just doesn't like dubia roaches. I actually went out and got her some crickets. We'll see how it goes! Honestly, I know the drill, but this is getting on my last damn nerve.

Yep, the day I find the molt is registered as the day they molted. That way I'm always on the safe side in terms of offering food.

Is this an AB member's ad? Anybody we know? :) https://phoenix.craigslist.org/wvl/pet/d/tarantulas-adult-females-and/6703514432.html

Yes, I wondered if they might be the foremost spider place. They didn't carry tarantulas when I lived in Columbia, but I dropped more money in there on fish and supplies than I care to think about!

Looks like a boy to me.

Depending upon the size of your smallest slings, I would say if you're going to be gone longer than a week, make arrangements about water. If you're going to be gone longer than 2-3 weeks for slings--or a month to 6 weeks for adults--make arrangements about food. That's what my gut tells me.

Wow! Are you kidding me? So don't listen to me, I don't know what I'm talking about! Release that adorable little thing and pretend like you never saw it. The same is true of corn snakes in the state of Georgia, from which they hail. Which makes no sense as their habitats are being bulldozed at...

Snowy, welcome to arachnoboards, powered by groupthink, for good and for ill! This is a classic example of that principal at work. When you have been on the forum for a while, you will learn who the more experienced keepers are and whose word you trust the most on a given issue, but in general...

It's a beautiful creature. Here in Arizona, we often find interesting things in our pool, also. A few years ago I dipped out a baby coral snake, a stunning thing, that ended up going to the Phoenix Zoo. Not the sort of thing you want to net and release around where children and dogs play! I...

That's attentive.
