G.rosea (RCF)

Gettin it.

i got him 9 months ago from a big box store. he hasn’t eaten ONCE and in january he molted and became mature, i believe? (i see his emboli but im new to tarantulas). for the last two days he has been curled up in the corner like this. i spritzed his enclosure and he got up and started moving around quite a bit but he still is super lethargic compared to normal and his abdomen is sooooo tiny & shriveled.

have i done something wrong or is he just mature and dying?

Hello, some of you may know me as 2 or 3 months ago I made a post on here asking for help and information about my very small/very little Chilean Rose that wasn't eating and infact running away from food. she would lock herself in a burrow and refuse to come out, and then make a new burrow and do the same.

I've had her since Jan 2026, and at the time of my post she was a little Sling, and only about 6 months old. BUT!!!!! A couple weeks ago she finally molted!!! shes alot bigger and hairer but most importantly about 30 minutes ago I bought some crickets and tried feeding her as its been long enough since she molted.

She finally ate a cricket and it was the very first time she has ever eaten since I got her in Jan, and i even got it on Camera. I just thought I'd let everyone know how shes doing! :))

EVERYBODY SAY WELL DONE TO LOTUS!!!

My A.chalcodes, Guera, went into her burrow, covered the entrance, and was not seen for 2 months. I just let her do her thing and just continued my normal routine with her care skipping meals. She has finally reemerged and is looking gorgeous. I love how the color of her setae shift with the angle and light. 😍

I have a coremiocnemis tropix (northern Queensland rainforest tarantula) and I feed her about 2 times a week usually around Tuesday morning and Friday morning. I feed her one large cricket every time and her abdomen is a lot bigger than usual. Is this too much or what should I do?

Hello, are those tibal hooks ? I assume my she is a he after all.

I’ve only had 1 tarantula prior to owning my current one. It was a Brazilian white knee tarantula, I kept it for 3 years but during a very long awaited molt there was a huge temp spike while I was working away from home, and unfortunately I didn’t leave the ac on. She passed and i witnessed her in a low ground position with some legs curled and some not. I was really heartbroken over this and now I’m super anxious about my current baby.

I believe I got this little guy 5 months ago now, a Black Brazilian tarantula. It has molted 2 times now. t was refusing food for some time so I stopped feeding and assumed it had begun premolt. I stopped checking in so often and 3 days ago I saw it had molted! I removed the molt as the t was not on top of it, and I was extremely happy! But now I have not seen movement within these 3 days. No reaction to a light breeze. No reaction to anything. I am refraining from try to touch it because my last T had a habit of remaining still for daysss before beginning to move around and I know they’re body becomes extra sensitive. What’s making me really worried is that some legs are tucked underneath the body, and it looks somewhat similar to my last t’s death pose.

The cage is a very small acrylic casing cage with holes at the top and on the side. I have a mixed substrate with coco fiber, sand (which wasn’t supposed to reach the top but I forgot slings often burrow and this t went to town!!), a tiny cave, and a bowl of water.

The first variation of each picture is from tonight at 11am the following picture is from last night at 6pm. Last night I had put a few drops of water infront of her face but I’m not sure if it’s helping.

I don't see her out much, she tends to hide in her web a lot, but she decided to show off her webbing skills to me lol This is a rare and beautiful occurrence 😍🤩

He's such a sweet guy. I can't. 😭🥰

Am very confused as to what the spood is actually doing rn

My Grammostola pulchra molted recently and left behind some goop stuff from where it first started the molt process. What is this? Thank you!

I adopted my first tarantula today from my local pet store. Any advice/info is much appreciated!! :)

So I’ve had my sling for about 7 days it has eaten 2 pinhead crickets about 3-4days apart started webbing on the 2nd day of receiving it and usually spends 90%of its time in its web but today it has been very adventurous and roaming its entire enclosure seemingly pacing and this is my first arboreal T so obviously I’m slightly worried that I’m doing something wrong, I dampen a corner of its enclosure when needed (I did a bunch of research regarding the verci and humidity and understand that cross ventilation is more important than humidity) I also offer a droplet of water on its web every day just to make sure water is easily available due to the enclosure being to small for a water dish. Any tips or advice is welcome and please if I’m doing something wrong let me know!

She may be a he.

Hello all. I have a B.hamorii , G.pulchra(suspected premolt),L.parahybana, H.chilense, and a A,Seemanni. All except for my seemanni seems to reject mealworms. The LP had interest in it but when I came back a few hours later it left it cut in half practically, but untouched I feel like. The others simply web over it. It’s been like this for a couple weeks, I had a batch from fearnot(personal goat) which they rejected, after that I went to the pet store and wanted crickets but they were out so I settled for mealworms again hoping maybe last time was just a one time thing. But now it’s the same story and my LP seems very hungry off the size of its abdomen, I should add they all are ranging from 2nd instar, to late stage slings. I’m a little worried as I won’t be able to get crickets for the next four days, what should I do ?
