drop the hard idea and go back to mealworm, the most simple source of food.

I don't know if you can go any simpler than that.

Its clean, safe and cheap.

It's ok when your T is behind your back, they are shedding their skin in order for them to grow.

Well I'm just telling it will require a lot of patience,
mice is just one of the test.
If you really have the passion, u have to pick it up again and start from scratch.

shut your mouth and start venoming

we need it

they don't fly, at least not for now. Last time I counted about 20 babies or so.
But only one survive until now


the thread is sooo slow!

Venomm!

First of all, is the marking at the carapace a sign of ultimate male?

I don't realize the pattern earlier...





Grammy, my first T:

nice hetroscodra machineculata

they are monster, fast grower, probably 5-6 month, or less?

When I turn this guy around,
I see a lot of mites on the the joint there, any idea how to get rid of them except scraping them by paper?

Even on the fang area, the mites are crazy!



sad...

moving venom, neurotoxic. Now who said tarantula is a bad business, its actually a shy predator. But of course, don't try this at home.

I have pull the pain receptor prior to that treatment.

First of all I cannot accept the question not pain or what,

haishh...

btw the T is dead, and I'm recording it to remind myself that it is a wrong way to puncture tarantula for preservation cause.

Should have done the correct way, but stupid enough carry on this barbaric method because short of pin, then afterwards it all shatter after I removed the pin. lol

shite, I wish I had a DSLR myself.

I would say it is Lampropelma Violaceopes. But I'm too naive to tell it by myself. Come and ID it!
The biggest one is 8 inch.
Besides when it dies, the coloration fade

Here is a ctenidus that I found too. But still, lack of ID.
Nothing much to expect as they say it was only part of the collection that they bought.
But they are interested when I point to them a little bit about tarantula,
they took my contact and hopefully we can work things out with them.

I wonder where uncle Dennis has went to all this while.

p/s: I can try to find collaborator within this week if you are interested in it. It would be easier if we keep in contact.
