Tarantulas and Spiders

I meant a.versicolor lol

H. lividum

Mine is still tiny but wow. I cant even follow that webbing or what she has going on in there. Plus she has a huge burrow going on.

Ok, lights off for about an hour so I sneaked back in.
She is looking awesome!!!

x2!

Picked up this huge beast today.

http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/01/20/tury3ehy.jpg

Grammosrtola pulchripes
Chaco Golden Knee

What a monster! (How do you feed that tiny thing?!)

When they are that small they can / will eat Fruit flies, roach legs or cricket legs, she could take down a tiny pinhead cricket.
What I like to do when I have only one or two tiny slings. I'll leave a small slice of fruit out and collect a few maggots from fruit flies. They eat them right up.
The only pinheads I can pick up local, you have to buy a box of 30 (so that's a waste) a whole culture of fruit flies is a waste too. I'll also toss them in a leg here and there. After a few feedings it will be able to take down a new born roach.

Here is one about a year old now.

Your P. irminia is looking awesome! And so is baby the Chaco. Sorry it took so long to reply.

I'd be worried holding a super small one like that ha I'm clumsy

Haha. You have to sit very still. When I was transferring the Red Rumps, one shot up the paintbrush, up my hand and up my arm. My GF had to help me find it and get it into a spot I could catch it :p

Haha as cool as I find Ts if one did that to me I would scream like a little girl :) then I'd have to compose myself

Haha. I always think I'm going to lose them or move and crush it :(

Charlotte keeps getting all defensive when I try to go in her cage

Hey 3skulls do you know what species this little guy is?
http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/01/30/udyqyteb.jpg
http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/01/30/5a9apaty.jpg

I'm pretty sure he's a jumping spider because of his eyes but not really 100% sure.

Yeah that's some type of Jumper. They are almost always hairy with a flat little face.
I had a bunch over the summer lay sacs for me. If you keep it, they are awesome to watch. They will stalk and hunt their prey. :)

A threat pose is always cool to see but not when my hand is near :p

I'll be transferring a P. irminia tonight. Wish me luck.

Have a cool little set up for him. (Hope this one is a him). I'll post pics in a bit

Well it wasn't bad. He came out and ran around the outside of his new home. After a few minutes he went inside. By the time I grabbed my phone he was down in his hide.

http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/01/30/uvy2ynas.jpg
http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/01/30/ga8e3umu.jpg

Gave him 2 hides at different angles, they are both down in the soil. I'm also trying a wider instead of taller enclosure with him.

A few new updates.

B. albopilosum - Honduran Curlyhair
http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/02/05/are5y2e5.jpg

P. cambridgei - Trinidad Chevron

With its molt.
http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/02/05/eqazuga9.jpg

Starting to really get some cool color.
http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/02/05/anu7urap.jpg

L. parahybana - Brazilian Salmon Pink Birdeater. About to pop!
http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/02/05/emydypug.jpg

My other one has been very busy. Can't really tell in the pic. It has move a ton of dirt around. :)
http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/02/05/e7a7e3u8.jpg

I gotta extra ten gallon with the screen top would that work for a rose hair they have them at pet co bout size of my fist. The top is one that you twist the screw things and it tightens

That will work.
Personally I would get a sling so you can watch it grow. A Rose Hair that size is going to be pretty old. If its a male, his next molt could be his final molt.

Just something to think about.

Well as it seems a great fellow has offered to help me out with a sling!! ;) haha I have the perfect spot for a T cage that's in perfect view. Now it's time to wait patiently and get everything set. Do I need a uth? My rooms temp is set to 80 at the normal

:D

80* is good. If I remember right, a Chilean rose is good between 75-85*

My T room stays right around 80-82* and they are doing great. No UTH needed.

Perfect :)

carlson, you PM is full. :p
I'm hoping to pick everyone up next Saturday at the show (if not before)

Then we will see how the weather does.

Figured I would add these here as well.

:) :) this is where the dancing fruit is needed in tapatalk! Haha hopfully Minnesota starts to warm up soon I'm right off the southern tip of the big lake so hopfully soon it flips and warms up!

What type of T are you getting nick?!

Is it normal that Charlotte hasn't molted? :/

Yeah. At that size and age, she might only molt once a year if that.

They grow very slow compared to others.

These spiders are about the same age.
