Hi there I’m looking to purchase a P. Cambridgei juvenile (5cm) next month and the enclosures I’m looking at the sizes are the following: 10x10x15 CM 15x15x20 CM 20x20x30 CM Obviously the last one is too big but between the top 2 which one is best suited? Thanks

Even if you don’t go on abdominal size would it be better to underfeed then feed a bit too much (I’m a noob too). I mean some of the more stubborn ones sit behind a dirt door for months at a time so can’t be that hungry.

Some photos and videos of my first T’s

My C. Versicolour coming out for the first time since I got him/her.

Update my b. Hamorii has finally pushed some of its dirt door down yesterday . Offered it a mealworm and he/she came crashing through the rest of the dirt like the cool aid man. I have a camera on the enclosure and it was up all night exploring. I did notice that the burrow is now a massive bowl...

Looking great!

Hi all I’m looking to go to my first arachnid show in the next couple of months. Problem is I can’t find and info on any apart from SEAS (which I can’t attend unfortunately). Does anyone know of any that are on? I’m based in the midlands but happy to travel. Thanks

Unfortunately skinny legs have ceased trying now.

Ha ha I’ve already bought a versicolour which is hanging out all the time. Counting down the days until pay day now!

Thanks, luckily I have a lot of patience so will wait until she/he finally comes out.

Hi all here’s a better photo of the enclosure. Water hasn’t gone down at all but I still change it every other day. No sign of movement yet but I’ve got a small surveillance that we have to put behind the enclosure so hopefully will capture something. As for the substrate it is slowly drying out...

Sorry for the poor photo I will try and get a better one tomorrow. So the T is a juvenile and it’s 5cm. What tips would you give to reduce humidity/ moisture from the substrate? Thanks

Hi all I received my first T yesterday. It settled in fine and sat in its hide for a bit. I have come back today after work and it has bulldozed substrate blocking itself in its hide. I know it’s a sign of moulting but would it do it so quick 24 hours after I received it? The only thing I can...

Hi all Josh here Im looking to get into the hobby. I have done a lot of research already and watched a lot of videos on YouTube (mainy the tarantula collective) but I’ve joined here to get some more info. I’m looking to start off with a docile spiderling such as a Chile Rose or a Mexican red...
