Hey all;
I went into the shop for water test kits but this little friend was practically free since they're down a leg and the shop had lost the identification info. They said they're pretty sure it was something tropical. I'd been considering getting back into spider-keeping so I went for it...
I'm so impressed by these guys every time i learn something about them! I'm glad you brought your 4 home. & it's good to know they might molt a little earlier-I'll keep an eye out for any changes.

Hi there! I've wanted a pet T for as long as I can remember and am finally in a position to bring one home. I've been researching and working on setting up a home before picking one up and am looking over substrates. It looks like coco coir is a good option that I can actually access, but in...
