I think the biggest is about two an half inches maybe three I only have few adults an some juvies so it's slow going

That's cool watching them doing that, be sweet watching a big t lay its eggs

I know. I can't wait to catch that one day.

Hissers are uglier than dubias :p

Hey skulls, how quickly should the dubia be eating? I put a couple pieces of cantaloupe in there yesterday and it looks like they haven't really eaten much. I'd think they'd eat it pretty fast with all them in there, no?

With such a small colony, as of now, it won't seem like they are eating much at all.

Ohhhh ok. I'll put in even less food then from now on lol

Leave it in over night. That's when they are most active. Mine loved the watermelon I gave them.

If I put in some fruit for tonight is it fine no water gonna buy the water crystal things tomorrow

Did u start a burrow or does she do it on her own?

I started one if the front left corner. I hope she takes to it so I might be able to see her more.

She took to it! Very busy overnight.

http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/04/22/neha6amu.jpg

She's a busy little lady, I want mine to make the burrow up against the glass lol

Yours won't really burrow much. As they grow they might not even use a hide. Which is a good thing. Some burrowing spiders just become pet holes. You might get to see them once a month, in the middle of the night, for 15 seconds :p

Haha well then pet holes aren't fun, maybe one day ill get a heavy webber hmmm I should go look at my bank account so I can remind myself I can't be impulsive :) lol

Haha I know what you mean. I was about to go nuts at the show.
I had to remember about all the spiders coming this week. :o

I can't get enough :p

Haha like 130 slings on the way an your still jonesing for the next one! There may be a 1800 number for that :) haha that's so many idk how you keep track of them all

I know. I'm a spider junkie.

I need to work in the bug room tonight an make some room. :)

Haha maybe one day.

It's getting ready to become bug / baby snake room.

Your room as more cool stuff than mine 😝haha. Since you getting slings you gonna be able to use the smaller pill bottles for the first little bit?

They will be very tiny. I'm using 1oz portion cups.
Like this.
http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/04/23/erunevyq.jpg

I'm pretty sure I'm going to place them in the smaller tubs above my roaches.
That way I can just pull a tub to feed.

Might be adding another Roach Rack too :o

Gotta expand with all them mouths to feed. An petstores to supply! Haha

Haha.
I hope I can keep up with the pet store.

Roach shed!

Ya know, Rich with all those teeny little tiny little tubs, is it possible you could make some sort of "T-rack"? That would be neat! Kinda like a bp rack, but scaled down much tinier with tiny little tubs for Ts :D

Haha. They do have "racks" for the Really Useful Boxes. I was looking at them the other day. :o
You can screw them to the wall. Each box has a little cubby hole.

They stack so well, I didn't know if it would be worth it or not.

I just can't wait until I start getting into some adult enclosures :)
I have tons of ideas.

Those lil millipedes are adorable! I miss my giant African black...."Minion". She was soooo cool. I used to have a Vietnamese rainbow that was cool too.

I just want to let you know, I pretty much hate spiders they creep me out, but this thread kinda makes me want a T. I have no idea why, it's kinda weird I would even consider purposely having a spider..

So anyways keep posting pics they're somehow interesting to me!:confusd:

A ton of people get into Ts to help get over a fear of spiders.
After you watch them and start to understand them more, they are an amazing animal.

Keep following and I'll keep posting as I'm sure other will too.

..............

I'm so happy with the new millipedes. I keep peeking in on them :o
I really want some ABGs. They are on my wish list for sure.
I just gave them a couple of older Blueberries. Not sure if they will eat them or not.
