Thus far ive had tremendous luck keeping tarantulas alive and healthy, except for Brachypelma boehmeis. I bought a hatching a few weeks back, got it home, opened the lid to put in a pin head cricket and it ran out of the cup, under my table, and off to who knows where, more than likely will never be seen again... I got a 2nd one about 3 days ago, and had it in a hotwheels car crystal collecters box thing, with 2 small holes drilled in the back... Well, its gone. Either theres a curse in my home against boehmeis, or they are a cross between a spider, a contorionist and Hoodini, I cant fathom how it could of got through such a small hole!!! SO.. I give up on the beautiful boehmei... Its not meant to be:mad:

Mixing meds and alcohol is a BAD thing! Remember that, Dragonfly.
