T night time activity

[ijmccollum]

Okay, I searched for an appropriate thread to revive but didn’t see one, if I did miss one, I do apologize in advance.

The topic: T night time activity.

The only T’s I see during the day is my A. versi who is actually quite bold in hanging out till something moves and then s/he bolts for the web, and the L. klugi and parahybana – who for the most part stays in their cave but you can see in.

Last night I woke to the sound of rustling in the room. I know it was not the chameleon ‘cause she sleeps like a log, so I know it had to be one of the T’s. I am thinking it is the parahybana who has made a depression in the substrate next to the Styrofoam I used to anchor some fake plants to. There are tell-tale signs of the Styrofoam being munched. My husband commented that hears it too, on various nights. Even though everyone else was out, and I gotta say, some I haven’t seen since they came in and I housed them, and the parayhybana was just sitting there in the open, it still had to be it ‘cause it really is the only one big enough to be moving things around. The klugi is down stairs so I know it wasn’t s/he.

What do your kids do during the night?

My ts all get together at night and play poker... im assuming this due to the pretzels,beer bottles, and stale cigar smoke i find in their cabinet in the mornings

I sleep like a log, my tarantulas could hold a rave at night and I wouldn't know...

[grayzone]

seriously though... they mostly just do "spider stuff" ... webbing, drinking, moving around exploring the cages... my old Lp would always redecorate at nite

As long as none of them are drug- or weaponsdealer it's all fine

I agree with the majority! Most of my Ts are "Nightly Active"

Mist your tanks before you go to bed, in the morning you should still be able to see "foot prints" and tell who's been going for walkabouts lol Its how I can tell my H.Lividum goes out of her burrow, she actually gets around alot. Also I know my H.Mac leaves his corner cause I find poop in the weirdest places lol

[grayzone]

ah i can only imagine... im picturing tons of members that read this sneakin around their house with flashlights ready to spy on their ts tonite... id laugh at the thought but thats a regular night time ritual around here... im a bit of a nite owl

[ijmccollum]

Yeh, I know I'll be up late tonight sneaking' around with the flashlight. Already caught the rufilata hanging out and it's only 9pm.

That made me giggle

Oh yeh, oh yeh, haven't seen the P. cambredgie since it first came in.......just jettisoned exuvia. The night is claiming me once again....now what to do about the day job that pays the bills? Oh heck, no one needs to sleep on the weekends. Gotta pay the bills so the Ts have a home.

my g.rosea as webbed the bottom of her cage so i think a molt may be coming. my b.albo sling has severd his mealworm and half and eating a small half

[grayzone]

still up... not much activity with the gang here i have decided to supply my female rosie with a lil extra heat right (which has her a little extra active... i know.. an active rosie right???) now as she has been paired a few times lately.. i swear its only been a week and her abdomen is a LOT bigger.. ALSO , my bastard male regalis is RESEALING himself off in his tube. he has been in premolt for like 5.5 months and is due to molt soon. i keep saying any day now, but im tired of kidding myself... i need him to mature SOON.

lolemme know if you notice any change in your G.roseas temperament from what I've read on them Majority of the owners I've seen keeping them at a higher temp have said they act a lot more aggressive but in cooler temps they seem to be more active? Lol sounds weird but I'm interested to see if yours acts similarly.
