    US pokies for sale group price

    Hey Tomz. Do you still have the P.metallica adult female & subadult male 4.5-6in? How much, and can we get a photo(s)?

    I'm getting my first tarantula, i need help.

    It really does depend if you are getting a sling, a juvenile, or an adult T. That's an 11 Liter tank, just shy of 3 gallons. MUCH too big for a sling or 2 inch juvie, fine for an adult. Don't want too, too much space for a sling, otherwise you'll have a hard time tracking where it goes and your...

    US Casey K's Tarantulas Review

    First time dealing with Casey and she did not dissapoint. Ts came in safe and swift. She (as if we all haven't noticed before) is jovial and quick to address questions or concerns, whether in topic or off. Lookin' forward to next time! :)

    Christmas came a little early for me, thanks to Matt here. Wanted 3 P. Victoris, got 3 P. Victoris. Matt is communicative and friendly. Shipped quickly and slings arrived packaged nice and safely. Will deal with again (once I've made space for the future, hee, hee, hee...)

    Heating an enclosure?

    Do you happen to have a styrofoam box large enough for your enclosure(s) to fit in? I stack a few loose rectangles of styrofoam at the bottom of such a box to elevate the tank(s) held within. Heaters are square underneath each enclosure. In my case I have been using mini RH-7 Heaters (I believe...

    Has Anyone had Success Breeding Earth Tigers E.G. Ornithoctoninae?

    I won't lie; almost impulsed bought 3 of these, until I remembered I don't know how to breed them, other than vague rumors that the process is similar/identical to Lamprobelma Ts, who I've heard are actually in the same family. Does anyone have any first hand knowledge that might help? Any...

    Out and about or always hiding?

    None of mines are shy. Pulchras, Versicolors, Pumpkin Patch large, and P. Sp. Blues - the latter ones sometimes ducks into their burrows when I feed or do maintenance, but they usually come right back out to see if I dropped them food.

    US Ben’s Bugz (tarantulabas1993) review

    JS31, I am glad Ben gave you his best, because clearly this seller has slipped in recent times. Answered the following ad from seller: https://www.tarantulaforum.com/threads/spooky-discount-treat.27834/ Bought and paid for the same day the ad was introduced on October 9th. One fifty for T plus...

    US Matt Padilla (The Spider Room)

    I concur with Phobik1. Matt is definitely your go to guy. He was prompt with responses and updates. Spot on the with orders too. Put in a pre-order, and he had everything ready with no delay. Will buy from again!

    US aphonopelma chalcodes sling, 1in and 1/4

    My friend, your reasons are your own. No explanation necessary there. ...What we would like to know, at the very least, is what the price for the Ts are. And TOS, if any...? P.S. I am assuming the smaller sling is in a vial you used previously, as the label upon it still reads G. Pulchra and...

    US Pseudhapalopus sp. blue Male + Breeding Tips

    Finding a female was hard enough! Information on raising them, too, was scarce; at least someone was able to tell me care isn't much different from Cycolsternum Ts. Slings of Sp. blue are fairly plentiful, but that wait time! Figured it wasn't going to hurt to ask before trying to raise these...

    I'm new and have a Pink Toe T

    Welcome to Arachnids Anonymous - no wait, owning Ts ain't a crime, why do we have to be anonymous? Avi Avis do indeed come in multiple morphs...Perhaps a photo? Then we maybe able to suss which darling you own.

    Sling to adult, how many make it?

    Expect losses only if you think you've got everything in hand without prior research, especially if you are not asking around - something you are already doing, thus you are at least 10 times better off than the average impulse buyer who sees a bunch of colorful Ts, thinks, "Pretty!" And...

    I have no T's.

    Started the same way. Began with Convict Cichlids, ended up with Caribena Versiculors. I am not regretting the change. If you're in the mind of breeding Ts, keep in mind to take into account ease of breeding for your starters as well. Some T's are easy breezy breeders. Others like L. ******imum...
