Nice video. Like them all.. except they've made me want to get into pokies. Thanks a lot.

They're not eating. Can't seem to figure out why not. Temps at 80 & humidity is at 80 in the the container I'm keeping their deli cups in. They don't to be ready to molt. Any ideas to get them eating again?

 

[catfishrod69]

what are you feeding them? try killing it by squishing the head, or cutting it in half..

 

[Israel2004]

Have been crushing to small crickets heads. At a huge loss as to why they wouldn't eat. They ate like crazy when I first got them.

 

[catfishrod69]

they might be in premolt..sometimes some of the terrestrial slings i have that are tiny, are harder to feed, sometimes they will take a cricket as big as them alive, and sometimes i have to kill it..

 

[jbm150]

Maybe it's just the picture but that one looks like it just molted. It's legs look kinda clearish. If it just molted, give it a few days before offering food

 

[catfishrod69]

yeah actually that one does look freshly molted...

 

[Israel2004]

Update on these guys. Nothing in care has changed but suddenly they've all have started eating like starved loins again.

 

[catfishrod69]

they will do that sometimes...glad it worked out..

I was holding my LP for like an hour today so i decided to take some pictures

 

[Artaeshia]

Can't wait for mine to get that big!

 

[MarkmD]

Your LP is very nice, I've only held mine twice and that was when I first got her at just over 1" got pics in my gallery, that was 7 months ago now she is 4"+, luckily she is super calm but very bold, so by your pics maybe I will hold her again.

Hey y'all. New to the board. Got my L.P. a few weeks ago and decided to join up and show her(I think) off A couple pics of her when I got her with the tank and one of the remodel I did to replace the bark chips with some better substrate and a bunch of cork bark for her.

 

[Bipolar Spider]

Awesome T man, I think I had one of these briefly for a day then decided it was too big :laugh:

 

[Tlro666]

Thanks! Yeah they definitely are a massive spider. The fellow I bought her off of said she was about 1.5 inches when he got her two years ago. Now shes just about 8 inches

 

[MarkmD]

Nice LP

 

[Tlro666]

Thank you went to feed her a superworm last night with my forceps and she nearly ripped them out of my hands. She is incredibly powerful. Its really surprising.

Yeah, mines only 3 - 3 and a half inches but when I filled her plastic water dish one time she shot at it, (as most of them do) struck it hard. I could really hear the crack, was worried she'd broken a fang but luckily not. Wouldn't want that in my finger even at that size.

 

[RoseK]

Beautiful LP! I got a MF over a week ago (already have a MM) and she looks just like yours. Congrats, these Ts make a great addition to any collection.

 

[Tlro666]

Here's a vid of her cleaning her fangs. I havnt got many of her in her new setup yet. Just trying to let her settle in. She has completely coated it in webs though. Even the lid...
