    HELP?! I dropped her.

    So I literally just got a Tucson Blonde Tarantula yesterday. I was told she's about 10 years old, and I would say she's around 3-3'1/2 inches. I had her out on my hand when I was switching her to her new tank and she ran off my hand. She fell about 6-12inches I think. And she landed with her...

    Should I be worried?

    I have a 6 year old Chilean Rose Hair named Elise. I'm a textbook overthinker so I may be worried for nothing but I'd like another opinion. She has recently stopped eating, has spread a thick layer of web along the entire surface area of the substrate in her enclosure, and has been picking up...

    Heating help for Wisconsin owner?

    Hello all, last week I acquired my first tarantula, an avicularia avicularia, about an inch and a half long from the front to the back toes. I've read a few comments here today about how heating lamps and moist substrates are not best for the genus. My worry is that I essentially live in the...

    Pinktoe Tarantula Enclosure Advice Needed.

    So I just got a pinktoe tarantula, and I've heard that the fact sheets online can't be trusted. I know it's arboreal, and I've got a good cage, but I'm not quite sure how hot or humid it should be in there. I've just been spraying anyway. Any advice? Thanks!
