Hey all, My 6cm-7cm A. Geniculata arrived two days ago. since then, it has only stood on the side of the enclosure. I know it takes a few days for them to settle down, but I think something may be wrong since this is the only location it is hanging out in. When it was first put in the...

Hey guys! First time here as I'm newer to the hobby and am in deep here. I have a very happy healthy female Latrodectus Mactans (southern black widow) who has just produced an egg sack. She is guarding it pretty heavily and it's beautiful! I just am at a loss as to what I can or should do with...

My T is about two years old, female, and has never hidden away this long after I first got her. Her tank has the right moisture content, she always has access to water and (dead) food supply in case she molts and needs food/water, and none of the wood in her tank is rotting as it's checked...

Hello everyone! I want to begin with arboreal tarantulas and rn i can buy either an Avicularia aurantiaca or Heteroscodra maculata slings. I've found some info and videos about de H maculata but i have no idea about that Avicularia. I'm a beginner so i'm not sure about gettin an OW but that...

My beautiful Grammostola Pulchripes is trembling and shaky for the last few month. She refuses to eat for quite a while now and feels like she's getting weaker, so I'm getting worried. I kept her in the "ICU" containter with high humidity for a few days now cause I was hoping she might just be...

Hello :] I know this is very silly, but I recently got a new tarantula, a Trinidad Dwarf juvenile, and I've been having some issues/concerns about feeding her. She's my first tarantula old enough to eat live food, but I'm not super sure of how to do that? I don't feel comfortable leaving live...

I’m very worried and lean to be more on the safe side when it comes to stuff like this but trying to get her to eat, six roaches ending up burrowing under the substrate two are pretty close to her and on the surface of the substrate but It’s hard to get them out since they are stuck to the web...

I've never posted on any forum before, and have no idea if I'm doing this right? But if so, hi :] I just got my first ever spiderling, a little Tliltocatl albopilosus and have a probably silly question, but I cant seen to find anything elsewhere. A few days ago when I went to spray her moss...

Hello all, After months of deliberation, I have finally acquired my first tarantula. It’s a B hamorii that’s about a half inch, I would say. Its abdomen is bigger than I expected it would be, and now I’m squarely conflicted on whether to feed it or wait a week or two. I need some more seasoned...

Hello all, My roomate bought a Curlyhair tarantula from a pet store and it laid an eggsac. We thought it would be a dud when we cut it open (45days after she laid it) but we found about 300 1st instar tarantulas. We do not feel good about freezing them. Is there anyone who is willing to take...

Hello! I have a Pinktoe Avic and I'm really hoping nothing's wrong with her. Shes been spending alot of time on the ground lately even though shes always on top of the enclosure. She never webs just chills on top But these last few weeks shes been on the ground not eating/barely moving. At night...

I recently got a chaco golden knee sling in the mail. I did a bit of research about slings here and there specifically for the Gold Knee. I was just wondering if anyone had any tips for the caring of a sling. My main concern is feeding, I bought 1/4 small crickets for it I just wonder if the...

Ok so, I've had my pink toe just under a year, she is my first. She was 17 months when I took her home so she is just over 2 years old now and this will be her second molt since I've had her. Her fist molt was only around 2 months after I got her and it was while I was away for a couple of...

Hey guys, I just got a new pink toe a couple days ago. I just noticed the T to be curling up one leg like a death curl but no other legs do this. When I lift the lid the T goes back into a normal stance. Is it just chilling like that or should I be worried? It hasn’t eaten yet but im guessing...

I'm planning on buying another tarantula and I'd like it to be a good webber. I want to see gorgeous web structures. What type of tarantula do you guys think that will fit in my "needs".
