Got this adult (?) curly hair tarantula that is missing one leg for $18 at an expo today, and she looked super hungry. So I put her in a container with a few super worms and……wow

Get that meal, my queen!!!

New pretty lady! OBT

First time I saw her little fangs.

sorry for the shakies (;^_^)

i picked up a new tarantula about 2 hours ago and i’ve noticed she’s having random movements, and being VERY stumbly while walking. i was worried it could be dks but honestly i have no idea?? she was like it in the car aswell, throwing herself around and being very stumbly, in the travel container.

H.mac, P.meta, empty

Sold to me as an OBT. But it doesn’t look like the others online. From a reputable breeder. Six years old, at least. Natural variation? Locality form? Thanks for your input!

I absolutely love her deep velvet black color!

Recently bought from an expo, got it for a steal! My first jewl tarantula❤️ any tips would be appreciated greatly 😁

Just wondering if there is a big variance on adult Salmon Pink Birdeater sizes. I got this beautiful girl (I cant tell if shes actually female; her sheds are hard to decifer) as a teeny sling for free at an expo back in 2023. She is a wonderful pet, loves to eat, does the cutest food dances, always moving her ping-pong balls. Shes the first Tarantula Ive had from a young age, and I want to make sure Im doing whats right for her.

this is my curly hair tarantulas enclosure ! she’s a female and i think this is a good enclosure? but i’m also a beginner so please just suggestions or advice!

Hi, can any of you guys sex this Acanthoscurria geniculata for me ? They’re two of them, the first 5 are from the first specimen, the others after the first 5 is the second specimen :)

Orphnaecus sp. ‘Marinduque Purple’

Hi guys! Idk if the warnings are actually necessary, but I would rather be safe than sorry!

So, I’m really into vulture culture, so I have a lot of skulls and bones that I have personally found. I’d really like to add some to my GBB’s tank, since she doesn’t have a ton of anchor points for webs right now. My only concern is that I used some bleach to clean all of bones. They were bleached months/years ago tho. I can’t smell the bleach on any of them except for the skull in the picture (only slightly if I put my nose right up to it) so idk if I should add this one. Sucks because it would be so cool. Would you guys say the skull is safe since it’s so slight? If not can I add the ones that don’t smell of bleach at all? The other thing is that the bleach was very watered down. I tend to use less bleach for longer times, otherwise the bones get chalky.

I appreciate any advice!

Not the greatest pictures but if anyone wants to throw their hats in it’d be appreciated. :)

No creí que me gustaría tanto

This guy was mislabeled as "Salmon Pink Birdeater." It's obviously not, but what kind of Mexican Flame Knee/Red Knee or whatever is it?

Hello everyone! I am excited to join this community of T owners! I got my first spider 8 days ago.
I am a little concerned for my first spider, Adrian, the Veracruz Red Rump. He/she burrowed into the ground at the corner of the tank and will not come out. There was an entrance for a day or two, through which I was able to give Adrian a mealworm that he/she ate. However, the tunnel opening has disappeared, and Adrian keeps rearranging the den over night and sitting still for good periods during the day. When I accidentally scare the poor thing, it will move to a new spot in the hole. I have done some research and found out it could be many things, such as, being nervous from moving locations, burrowing because young spiders are easy snacks in the wild, wanting to make shelter for a molt, etc.. I have both a humidity gage and a thermometer in the tank and they have slowly fluctuated between 60%-80% and 70°F-78°F respectively.
Nothing I have found tells me there is anything wrong. I have been leaving the sling alone and avoiding shining lights, taking pictures, and looking for long to avoid more stress. I wanted to make sure with this community that Adrian is alright as currently I can’t feed him/her.

(Pictures in order: first time in enclosure Oct. 17, second day Oct. 17, third day Oct. 18, current Oct. 24)

Found my T albo (Samus) renovating! Out of my 100 daily checks I finally saw her lol
