Like any other stridulation, a soft hissing sound. Kind of like a dull, soft, cicada cry.what do they sound like? I've never had any stridulate

My two Chilobrachy’s are slings so they’re probably a little easier than jumping in with a whole spitfire adult.Absolutely love my Chilobrachys species and I would definitely recommend them as beginner old world
Keeping OW’s or NW’s doesn’t mean you’re a better keeper or a worse one than people who keep the other, or both. You take care of your T’s and you’ve taught me, personally, quite a bit between your jokes. I appreciate that - alongside an immense admiration for anyone who takes the time to learn proper T care instead of basing everything off of a care sheet from PetSmart.Me, monkey around about baboons, never. Baboons are serious business, especially when it comes down to things that matter most, straight horned or curved.
I‘m pretty light weight on ow, some of the ones members have would terrify me; my status is the kiddie table at this point, lol.
Never heard one too in person. I have heard it on youtoob. It can be useful sometimes.what do they sound like? I've never had any stridulate
Haha yes. Huntsman spiders are pretty fast. I had one 30 years ago. I cant believe that 10 year old me caught it by hand! It was in the bathroom and my mom was about to kill it. Luckily I stepped in and kept it as a pet.Meanwhile I am of the opinion that certain True Spiders are the best training for Old Worlds. If you get along with Heteropoda or Cupiennius, for example, you will notice that OWs are not that fast...
You get it already or it’s on the way? The initial transfer wasn’t bad, but I’m sure the next one will be fun. Several entry/exit points, it’s going to be like the game of wack a mole.Just wanted to give you guys and update. I wound up with a C.Darlingi in the end (HOW COULDN'T I?)
Picked a sling up from a local breeder today. I've still got him in what he came in because I had to get to work but once I get back home I've got a good sized setup for the little guy all ready to go. Side note, I was able to see about 3-4 entrance/exits in the tiny deli cup he came in lolYou get it already or it’s on the way? The initial transfer wasn’t bad, but I’m sure the next one will be fun.

I am a pretty new keeper of OW and T's in general (less than 2 years experience). My first OW's were a pair of OBT slings, and I have found them to be fairly easy to deal with. I think Tom Moran's OBT husbandry video was really helpful to me, and my OBT's seem to be prett manageable compared to some of my NW AborealsSome will disagree with me, but I think that P. murinus can be a great starter OW tarantula. Ease of husbandry, beautiful spider, yes can be defensive but in my opinion this is way overblown. Just make sure you have the right setup, use common sense, and it's unlikely you'll have issues.
I absolutely agree, especially if you follow proper precaution for OWs in general. I find OBTs to be a more predictable species in terms of care and behavior. All of my OBTs had a very similar disposition and routine when it came to rehousing and feeding.I am a pretty new keeper of OW and T's in general (less than 2 years experience).
