Just leave your self room for adult enclosures :p

I talked with a dude that makes his cages. Process sounds sooo easy with just an 1/8 an inch sheet. May pick one up an try an make the next stage houses.

Too bad a coffee table that is split into a bunchn of different t enclousers would be too hard to clean. I was bored figuring on building a new coffee table once I get stuff outta living room. It would be so easy since no heat tape is needed. :( I always think of cool non pratical things

Just don't keep a lot of hair kickers in that table haha

Yeah I would like to see his enclosures in person.
The solvent can be a pain. One little drip or splash and the whole thing is ruined.

I need some more practice and maybe a different solvent. I need to see what I have.
The stuff I'm working with, you can't have any type of gap between the joining pieces or it won't weld.

Do you have a table saw?

No sir I do all my long cuts with circular saw. Steady hands ha well steady enough when I'm building my own things. Im gonna buy the hand tool for cutting acrylic tho ive used them on windows before an had successes. Is it kind of like the plastic to plastic weld stuff? I used to run nitro truck an would have to use the plastic kind all the time. Im sure it will take some practice but I grew up being taught "if you can build or fix it why are you buying it. If you cant build it, why not? Someone else can so figure it out."

O an ya sadly the table wouldn't work but I could design a BA one. My imagination works on overdrive most the time

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk 4 Beta

Yeah plastic to plastic weld.
I did construction for 5 years so I know what you mean. That's why I make my own :p

Even with a circular saw, you can't be off a 1/32". Unless you can get a thicker solvent that fills gaps.
The stuff I have is like alcohol, flows very quick and is almost an instant bond.

If you get anything made up, keep us updated!!

Right now I'm really happy with my flipped tanks.

Those ones are and I've already started clearing off the misc supplies that I never use and moving it to a closet. There's another set of shelves just like that one to the left of it.

All names and identities have been altered to protect the innocent. Lol Naw that's my name.

I have one room left in the house that doesn't hold animals.
I'm thinking of making it into an Adult T / Colubrid room :)

Then I'll be set.

Damon, at some point ill be looking for a really nice BCI female to go with my hypo male. But it might be awhile.

Well sir if I don't have what you want when you are ready I will find it! I've got a 2 year old girl right now with unknown genetics that has a gorgeous stripe down her tail. If I can't find a suitable male for her she may be up for grabs. She doesnt fit into my current plans. My boas are about the only project that I'm trying to be super selective with. I know what I want and its going to take forever to get it.

My female I had for him was so awesome :(

Thanks for thinking of us HoF'r! None of the T's you picked up are on my list though. Sorry :oops:

I think i'm gunna be skipping the white plains show in july and just go to the one in september. Also to the New Hampshire expo in october. If there's anything that anyone wants then, just PM your number and i can let you know what i see at the show. :gj:
(For clarification, i'm not advertising any sales here. I'd only be a middleman in this scenario.)

Anyone know any other T's similar to OBT's? I really love the look and attitude of that lil guy. :)

So, I just read about SADS? Sudden Avic Death Syndrome?

Worried I'd kill a versi. :(

From what i've read and learned, avics are fragile. Brian told me he's ha bad luck with avics, and he's very good with his T's. I wouldn't let it change your opinion too much. :)

What do you mean "non bird eater" lol?

Sounds good!

I don't know anything about SADS.
Just keep the humidity up some, plenty of fresh air and they should be good to go.

Mike look up the C. darlingi :p

Check the horned baboons mike! Also depending on how money looks I may want a gbb if they are decent priced :)

Darlingis are boring colored though. Just plain brown

Just got 180 of these freaking things in.
So I thought I would put them to good use.
I harvested some cane out of the back yard and split it to make half tubes.

The cane is baking. Going to put some hold backs in them.

Re-looking at this, you might just want to take that wood out. I'm worried she might dig out too much and it would fall on her.

Unless you have it propped up.

Just a thought. :)

Whats the common name for that one?

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk 2

hey Mike check into these. Tapinauchenius gigas (orange chevron tarantula?) extremely fast, reportedly voracious eaters, heavy webbers, aboreal. I'd think it would be close to what you are looking for. very pretty to boot.

Brazilian Giant Whiteknee

My baby versi hasnt eaten yet...:( i put about 4-5 tiny crickets in there to better her chance at grabbing one, and nothing. She came down and crawled around to check stuff out, but then went right back up to the top corner of her terrarium. Im just concerned cuz her abdomen looks so small...:( should i try to hand feed her with a small pair of tweezers? Finally did start makin a tiny web...

sent from my incubator

Do they have a good sense of smell?

sent from my incubator

I'm really not sure about that.
Good question.

I would give her another week to settle in. She had a good size meal when I fed them. They each had a dubia that first week I had them.

Next I would try crushing the head just a little, almost dead but still moving. Then place it in its web up top.

The others that are still here have tiny butts too. Don't expect them to be plump like a B. smithi would be.

Get a pic if you can and we can compare.

Mike, Damon have yours ate?
They did go from person to person to person in a short amount of time.

If you feel her cage is to large I can send you up one of the vials I got in.

Keep me updated.

Tiny butts lol.....we got these betta tanks in, 5x5 cylinders that i thought were really kewl...so i took out the gravel, added some forest floor and a water dish, and BOOM! Whatcha think?

Those look cool! Rich would those work for a vagans? We got a fish store that has tons of beta tanks

Haha are you making tanks with the plan of a new T?

That would work for the vagans for a few more molts.
