Spider owners tips, feed videos and BS

NO BIG DEAL RIGHT?

Very dumb.

 

I skipped passed the cringe worthy part; can't imagine how stressful it was for the T being pushed out like that.

Oh and @Pinay I can't wait!

 

Make an unveiling video

 

Hmmmmmm

"Here is the arriva.....OH FUCK"

 

"Mini Me" found his/her roach I left in there some 5-6 days ago when I got it



I really did try taking it out but it was stupid hard with all the webbing it got into. I figured it wasn't a threat since it was stuck

 

I can't wait to watch the "personality" change after several molts.

I should post on Arachnoboards

"HEY GUYS, IM NEW. GOT MY LP AS MY FIRST T AND GOT AN OBT AS MY SECOND...ONLY 1 MONTH LATER"

I'll get flamed like a mofo

 

I'm still trying to figure out why we haven't seen a feeding gif from @Pinay

 

The latest ones the Ts have been in their hides or wait till I’m not looking and prey gone by morning.

 

So that GIF I posted yesterday...I only recorded it since I noticed my OBT was outside of its retreat.

Took a closer look to see it had the roach but I missed when it went to grab it.

I'm wondering from here on out how I can entice my OBT to eat when dropping in prey. The enclosure is so small that I doubt any movement in the webbing will tell it "food is here" since there's enough disturbance in just opening the enclosure alone when I fill the water dish.

 

I'd recommend against trying to entice Ts (especially an OBT) to feed in a smaller enclosure. They can bolt outside of the enclosure way faster than you can react.

 

Drop food, hope it doesn't get entangled, and if in 24hrs its still there, remove?

I just hate to ruin the webbing and tunnels its created since I ruined one corner already when I replaced the substrate filled bottle cap.

And yes that thing TELEPORTS. It dashed from one corner to the other through its little funnel faster than I was able to track it with my eyes.

 

Yeah it's kind of tricky. If you feed your T once per week chances are high that it will be hungry and dart right out to snag the food.

 

THURSDAY IS ALMOST HERE

 

Hurry!

 

The one time I wish I owned a stand alone camera

My GoPro is locked away in storage too and damn near impossible to get to

 

Well Chilobrachys sp. vietnam blue (mature male) is officially mad at me.

 

Daaaamn

 

In anticipation of a new room mate





I put some extra thought in not just the placement of the wood, but also by carving a small "tunnel" entrance leaving the dirt below the wood loose.

It extends out to the small piece of bark in the top corner.

The large piece of wood also offers a nice anchor point.

Or I could put in both pieces which takes up room for the non-sling/non-juvenile/in-between for more anchor points? It'd look a little ugly/off lol but possibly functional
