I got my T a few months ago, with the enclosure and all, so I wasn't planning on worrying about the enclosure. I noticed tonight that she's been growing mushrooms??? Is this normal?? Should I deepclean at this point, or should I just take out that part and replace it?
Thank you in advance!
(She's a T Vagans if that matters)
I know Reddit is probably not going to like this. I did intervene in a natural process and I can see how that would be upsetting to some folks. but I could not just watch and not help the poor little guy out. by the time I was able to grab him/her up it was already stung. I’ve been giving water via a syringe for the past month but is there anything I can do to help him/her eat I’m assuming it would also have to be through a syringe. Ive seen people online say it’s very hard to save them from this but I would really appreciate any advice thank y’all (im assuming it’s a Texas brown tarantula but if it’s not I would love to know more info about the species)
As stated above. I don’t want to put them in something too small and they eat each other, or too big that they die off. They arrived next Thursday apparently so I have time to get one. I am new to this species but have researched. I have 2 set ups waiting for them to get bigger, just not the small one. Any further advice for the species is welcome too! Thank you
Hey so I have a MM Avicularia Avicularia who’s NOT eating even though his abdomen is really small. I was told it could be that he’s just wanting a mate but I don’t know. I’ve tried crickets, I’ve tried soldier flies, I’ve even tried his favorite silkworms. I’m buying a thing of waxworms to see if it’s just that I got them pre-killed but I don’t know. If it’s a mate thing where can I get a female for a reasonable price?
Pics for attention. I went to the Horsham expo a couple of days ago hoping to find a Versicolor, but all vendors sold out at the last expo. I don’t mind private sales/breeders. I’ve look everywhere. I intend to acquire both of them. Thank you!
I woke up and found my Texas tan running around my room, I scooped him up and put him back in his enclosure, I must have left the lid open on Saturday (that’s the only day I’m in the tarantula room) so that means he’s been out for two days at least. He seems fine, just a little sluggish. Is there anything I need to watch for or will he be perfectly fine?
I just setup this enclosure for my blue baboon tarantula (I am aware I need more substrate) and like 2 days later this stringy white and blue fuzzy mold show up on the spider wood. Is this harmful to the tarantula!?? And will the springtails get to it ?
my tarantula molted about 2 weeks ago now and it’s still got this bit of molt on it, i was wondering if anyone could help me out on how to get it off? this is my first tarantula and im still figuring out what to do
Is my curly hair tarantula a make or female
I'm not sure if they're big enough yet for ventral sexing but I decided I would try to see what you guys think about Ravioli.
