We've only had tarantulas since about last September or so. We were randomly in a pet store and we saw a rose hair. Chris really liked it and I said "Do you want it?" He said yes, of course lol. So I bought it for him and our tarantula love started from there. We have our rose hair Syska still as well as a Skeleton, Ress. We are in the process of ordering a Brazillian Black (which is my birthday present), a Regalis of some kind (sorry I can't memorize the scientific names very well, Chris can though lol) and a type of "Tiger" (orange stripes). Lol I seem like such a noob, but I am so it's ok. I'll learn the more scientific names in time!

Anyways here's our babies. Syska is female for sure, we think Ress is also a female, but it was a bit hard to tell from her molt (we've only gotten one of her molts out, I think she molted before but ate it).

Ress




Syska (please excuse the set up in the photos, when we first got her the people at the pet store didn't tell us anything about them. We had her on rocks/stones, then wood chips for the first couple days when we didn't know what type of bedding she needed. She's now super spoiled with a perfect set up with soil and a burrow she loves)

Hi and congratz:)
I think you should change the substrate for the Grammostola rosea to peat or similar so she can dig.

I think a pokie, there's so many different kinds. P Regalis, etc etc lol

The terranium is changed since those photos. It's soil, she can dig, she has a burrow she loves. I just don't have any new photos of them. They never come out so I can't get photos lol.
