New World Communal Tarantulas?

[Matt Man]

It's awesome. You will post some pics, when finished?

if it happens I will. It might freak my wife out a bit, I think it would be kind of cool.

I’m looking for some beautiful new world communal tarantulas. Any ideas?

This doesn’t exist to science. There are no known communal Ts on the planet known to science.

Humans need to stop playing god just because they can stuff a bunch of animals in the same stupid container.

Building a 20 x 10 foot stone wall and putting a handful Chaetopelma olivacea on there would be fun. Such a setup would be a tad hard to fit into a terrarium rack, though...

Also, Old World.

Thank y’all for all these replies. Ive decided not to take the risk in doing a communal tarantula set up. Now that I’ve educated myself on the topic I feel like it’s a little too risky since there is no true communal tarantula species.

The only communal I do is all under the same roof, in the same room, on the same shelving system and they each have their own units.

Communals seem like a lot of work and stress. You’ve got multiple spiders to keep an eye on when doing maintenance and feeding...or not feeding if they decided to snack on the neighbor. I lost a $45 T a few weeks back to unknown circumstance, couldn’t imagime dropping a few hundred on a maybe it’ll work maybe it won’t.
