I can see how it is a hassle, I’ll see if the shop I’m buying the Ts from has any premade enclosures just in case

Don’t have the T yet, want to make sure I have everything beforehand especially an enclosure hence why I was asking

Making the enclosure for a B.Hamorii 1CM sling is this an okay sized air hole or would it easily escape? Also would this size work for my C.Versi which will be between 1-2CM? Side note: will be trimming down and making sure everything is smooth just wanted a expert opinion

Looks identical to the Bipalium or commonly know hammerhead worm. Don’t know much else about them I’m afraid not much of a worm watcher aha

Sorry for your loss mate, think this is a good way to preserve her I’ll try it myself when that day comes

that’s what I was thinking, but better to get clarification from more experienced keepers

Getting my first T in a few weeks, funnily enough it’s a Caribena Versicolour, this thread was super helpful and it’s given me a lot more knowledge on the standard care then I have read. Thanks :)

I’ve seen a lot of people posting on their enclosure and wether it’s too big or small to boot, I’m starting to wonder if there is a thing such as a too big enclosure? Obviously the bigger it is the more hiding places etc for a spider to go. But is it really so bad like Can it stress out...

Honestly I don’t really know, I hated spiders, and moths, and bugs in general, soon saw a video on tarantula feeding, and from there, my collection is starting currently own Meconema thalassinum - oak bush cricket Amphipyra pyramidea - common underwing moth And soon to be starting my...

Did some digging and found the Post http://arachnoboards.com/threads/dyi-inexpensive-arboreal-sling-enclosure-with-bonus-candy-pic-heavy.289966/

I have loads of them kicking about, one is ready for a small B.Hamorii sling the other I’m getting ready for a C.Versicolour too, I know there was a post buzzing about on the boards showing how to make the boxes into an arboreal enclosure, if I’ll see it I’ll send it your way, the dark den made...

Your Sulpugid looks identical to the Ammotrechidae https://bugguide.net/node/view/55705/bgimage

I like it! How big is your sling? I don’t own a C.Versicolour yet, but from what I’ve heard they love to make their home in the lid, so maybe make his next enclosure one that opens on the side? May work better in both yours and his favour.

@dangerforceidle is spot on with a harvestman, they’re not a threat to us at all Many species of Opiliones are omnivores , eating primarily small insects and all kinds of plant material and fungi; some are scavengers, feeding upon dead organisms, and fecal matter. They’re pretty amazing creatures.

Thanks, just rehoused him into a taller and larger container, seems a lot happier and is doing good:)

You don’t have to buy incects to own them, catch them instead it’s more fun trying to work out what species it is, best of all it’s free and makes good use of any plastic containers, I catch most bugs myself, I caught a Amphipyra pyramidea recently or more commonly know Copper Underwing moth

Found the name, after a very long and tedious web search. Amphipyra pyramidea

caught this little guy at my local woods as I want to get over this dumb fear. Wondering what type he is?

I’m curious to see what incects or inverts you refuse to own period, and why? For me centipede hands down especially the more tropical ones, it’s something about the many legs and the antennas that freak me out. Spiders fine, scorpions eh well I’ll see (some of them are beautiful though) But...
