Hello there!

I just got a juvenile g. pulchra yesterday and moved her from her container into a proper home.

Of course she’s a little shy, spent part of the time hidden, but is now out. I offered her a mealworm yesterday and she wouldn’t take it. I tried again about an hour ago and she’s still now interested.

Her abdomen is nice and plump, but I’m new at this and want to make sure everything is normal. So…is it normal for a new juvie to take some time to eat after being rehomed?

Thank-you for any help!

Hello guys, just recently acquired this rose hair sling from a local seller and had just placed it on a new enclosure, now it keeps on roaming like a curious kiddo, would anyone help me verify if my suspicion is correct that it’s a She based on the abdomen curve? Thank you 🙏🏻

As the title states, one of my slings, an Arizona blonde, has been caught in his water dish tons of times. One time I had to get him out so I could fill it. Last 2 days I’ve had to fill this dudes water dish. I thought it was just drying out, but after filling it only 2 hours ago and seeing how wet the substrate around is, I think I figured out what happened.

Rarely catch it out so took a photo. I’ve noticed it using it’s blue leg like a lure—wiggling it outside like a worm 🪱

I am currently in school learning about animals and the teacher showed us this moult, but she said she doesn't know what is from. It was quite big. Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone. I have a satin pothos plant and I'm curious if these can be kept in a Striped Knee tarantulas enclosure

She's shy and I only handled her when she escaped or when I cleaned her place.
Had her since she was a sling.

I just wanted to share my excitement with you all! This will be first sling!

Hey guys We got superworms and the substrate they are in started smelling really bad. Is it possible to put them in oats? Doubles as food I guess?

This is my boy Apollo

I had a small round arboreal keeper with a bung in the top for my Caribena Versicolor, but whenever I opened the bung to feed or top op the water it disturbed them. So I bought this enclosure. Theyve been in it about a month now and just sit on the side constantly and don't go near the bark or faux flowers. Are they stressed/unhappy? Any insight appreciated
