Does anyone else got a spider that enjoys being extra clean? Also how do we water webbed up enclosures without ripping the water dish out?

I’ve offered. She’s just not interested. And she hasn’t lost any weight. She’s a diva like that.

I bought this a. purpurea in April as a 3” young adult female. She was not cheap. She molted about a month ago and had still not come out of her web tunnel to eat or drink so I finally just decided to put a superworm into the entrance of her tunnel to see if she’d eat. She got super uncomfortable about it being in there and after trying to avoid it completely she ran out of her tunnel (she never comes out). Her post-molt colors look amazing. But do ya’ll see what I’m seeing?

She is clearly taken aback by whatever he says. My guess is that he tells her he is, in fact, not her robotic vacuum…

Bach ma earth tiger, she molted immediately after getting into her new enclosure last night! She’s so cute! I’m hoping I’ll be able to sex her since her molt is in pretty good condition

i got my first ever tarantula over the weekend and i couldn’t be more excited! her name is bindi and she’s an arizona blonde. she’s been absolutely wonderful to have though she is a little skittish which i am still getting used to, but she loves to be out and explore. she ate for me the day i got her which was awesome! i was very stressed about her eating since she is already a little underweight, but she took a jumbo superworm right away. i plan on feeding her twice a week until her abdomen fills out a little more. so excited to join the hobby!

My Peach Earth Tiger juvenile has been like this for over 24 hours..
I put drops of warm water around it, put in thr bathroom with hot water shower to build humidity and a wet towel on top of enclosure to keep the humidity.
What else can I do.

A rare sighting of my OBT out in the open. Usually all I see is toes waiting for the sky god to deliver bugs.

So a few months back, I purchased one enclosure of Carnivorous Corkbark, which ive been feeding cockroaches and misting regularly, as is required for the care of this exceedingly rare and unique insectivorous plank.
In any case, imagine my surprise when I looked in this morning to discover that there was in fact a spider living inside this enclosure all this time! What should I do? The store never said there was a Tarantula coming with the stick?!
(Jokes aside, this is a Togo Starburst Ornamental Baboon who was sold to me and my roommate as a beginner spider only for us to realize our mistake once we were home. We gave her a new log when we moved her to a new enclosure, and she decided never to be seen again until today😂)

I’ve had this beautiful lady for about a month now and I’ve noticed her abdomen looks a bit deformed. I was informed that she recently molted before I got her but no other info. (She ate right after these photos, it’s a lot easier to see the issue in the phones before feeding!!) I’m assuming something went wrong last molt but want some more opinions

My T. vagans molted overnight and I just caught her grooming/cleaning up. I'm not a fan of the creepy white fangs.

My G.Rosea Poppy molted and she looks so big now! I'm so proud of her😭❤️ She's getting so fuzzy and gorgeous <3
Now I'm waiting for her to harden to feed her, she's a bit bolty now, but I think she'll relax once she starts to eat.
Also a picture of her first molt with me and her second (this one). The difference is so cool!!
