I have a spare exo terra 18x18x24 I'm considering putting a pare of emperors in there. Wondering if I throw in some nice wooden structure of the scorps would enjoy climbing around on it and use up the height. Thoughts?

So you think I should dig it out and risk wrecking her cave?

Pics of the klugi. Brave even as a sling :)

I can see a chunk of cricket inside the curly hair sling's little tunnel. If I remove it I think I'll destroy the tunnel. Is it ok to just leave it in there for the curly to deal with?

Short. Direct. Informative. I don't know what a gib is but I like the cut of yours!

Just recently added a 1.5 inch L. Klugi, and a 0.5 inch B. Albopilosum to my collection. I have moderate experience keeping adult tarantulas but have never raised babies. The Klugi is a maniac but I have had trouble getting the curly hair to eat. I decided to try prekilled pinheads for it...

My Parahybana burrowed down right along the glass. I get to watch her do all kinds of cool stuff. Here's a video.

Totally. She terrifies me haha. I find her so unpredictable still. My wife teases me because I won't hold her. No way I'm picking up this monster until I get to know her body language more. Does anyone know how many crickets I should feed her? She's had 7 crickets in 24 hours and looks like...

Yes I totally love it. She's just a little teddy bear with 8 legs.... that seems to have a bottomless appetite for crickets.

L. Parahybana chillin on her favorite rock.

I just cleaned out her water dish because she used it as a toilet. When I went to put it back in she was out of her den to investigate immediately. She had her front legs and palps all over the dish as i was sliding it in place. So curious and interactive :D

Last night she ate 5 silk worms. She had a wad in her fangs about the size of a ping pong ball and this morning I can't find any left overs anywhere. Needless to say she loved them. Definitely putting them into the rotation.

Check out these webs! Shes so active and hungry. Shes eaten 2 silk worms and 5 crickets in the past two days. Gonna be a big girl!

Totally. I despise crickets too. I'm picking up 10 jumbo silks tomorrow. I'll let you guys know how it goes. Maybe a feeding video :P
