All Ts love to have their 'hair' brushed and to be scratched under their chelicerae.

If your T runs away from you it's just being playful. You should amuse it by trying to catch it.

Ts giggle if you cover their eyes and play peek-a-boo with them.

Ts should be bathed in a full tub with a mild solution of No more tears shampoo and water or by using the delicates mode of your washing machine.

Ts should be fed a calcium supplements regularly. See the following thread for more information. :)

Never use a hair straightener on your curly hair tarantula.

Just because it's called an ornamental doesn't mean it's a Christmas tree decoration.

If you buy a Brachypelma smithi sling, be sure to put it in your will.

If you buy a Brachypelma smithi sling with intentions of breeding it when it's older, be sure to teach your child how to breed tarantulas. It will not be mature until you are long gone.

Green bottle blue is not an alcoholic beverage.

by the year 2010, at least one member of these forums will be featured on A&E's hit show about addiction "Intervention". Someone's family who truly cares about them will step in in order to save said hobbyist's life because unless they get help they will continue to spend their life savings on tarantulas, and they will starve to death due to spending every waking moment feeding and caring for thousands of hungry mouths. :)

its always fun to play tag with a 10" T Blondi

FYI.. even rosies have fangs


desert specie Ts loves gravel and sand combo for substrates. they also love being under a 3000 wat heatlamp and should only be given a water dish once every 6 months

PS..just so you know..crickets DO BITE!
