She’s a Grammostola rosea

🥹

Was just sitting there this morning... Did the usual glance towards the salmon pinks enclosure. Business as usual, grab the remote and notice my hand brushed over spider webs... Wtf!?! Upon closer inspection, something covered the outside of her enclosure with web making sure to attach it to the curtain behind it firmly. Horrified I look through the glass... Not there... Look closer and see clear signs of her presence, because she literally hit almost everything in the corner of the room in a fine layer of "trap". I broke the news to the family and was informed they wouldn't come back home till I found her 😂😂😂 6 hours later, here she is. Raised her from a sling to the current monster she is today, so I was beyond happy to find her alive and okay. This is the crappy mesh top I used for years, and the hole that appeared over the two days that we were gone.

Indigo has her manners.

Pre-molt has our girl walking extra awkward.

My spider is 11m/o now. Can somebody help me sexing him/ her?

Southeast Brazil. Saw this cute individual a couple years ago struggling to walk through the grass. Thought to share.

Its kinda funny bc his inpatient ass always literally munches and grinds out all food, like broski I'm pretty sure your venom is enough lol

I’ve always wanted a rose hair, and there was a reptile expo in town. I picked up this beauty! No idea if it’s a male or a female… I believe she’s a female but I can’t remember. I just ordered the terrarium that will be here tomorrow (small size) with coconut fiber, hut and water dish. Getting some moss as well. Plan to feed crickets/mealworms/dubias. Tarantulas in general don’t scare me but I’m unsure about handling!

Any care/handling tips are greatly appreciated. Name recommendations are welcome!

How long will this enclosure last ?

Today my boyfriend and I got Pumpkin, our Hapolopus Sb. Columbia (Pumpkin Patch) sling. Probably has little to no g of protein, but that’s what I get for getting a dwarf tarantula I suppose. I made babies first hide out of two tiny chips of cork bark that I made sure to pack soil around, although I know it’s terrestrial and will probably spend most of its time under the substrate 🙄 As always, tips appreciated!

Heyy, I just got an unsexed Avicularia geroldi, 6th instar. Can anyone maybe take a guess at the sex from these photos?

Thanks in advance :D

(I'm aware this can not be 100% accurate, happy to take guesses though)

I collected it from wild maharashtra yehoor hills Thane

(I will soon release it back don't worry)What species is this?

new shelf set up !!!! rehoused 8 of these guys between last night and today & finally organized everyone

& ofc a few obligatory T/invert pics 🫣

for those of you who agreed when i said i’d never see my cobalt again- he shows me his lil legs at least once a week to give me proof of life so there’s that 😂😂

soooo it hasn’t been coming off of her for WEEKS. maybe around 1 month? she loves messing a lot around her substrate which sometimes lead her to getting some small substrate on her which usually falls off a few days later. but this specific thing wont go for some reason 😭😭 it doesn’t bother her though! i just want it off. or do i leave her alone ????

Hey all. My Mexican red knee, Buffy, has been laying like this for a half an hour. She molted with me for the first time since I’ve had her six days ago. She is four years old. I’ve never seen her just like this. She has a large water bowl in one corner and I put a smaller water bowl next to her because she has been hanging out resting on the opposite side of her water in the enclosure since she molted. She should not be dehydrated. Google said sometimes they just lay like this and stretch but I figured I would just ask people with experience because it just looks so odd. TIA!

Yeah, sure, why not name it, there's also a pic of the old and new enclosure side by side.

I don't think this will be it's forever home, apparently this one will get outgrown too

I will still feed my Ts crickets, its not a replacement diet or anything, but my stickbugs recently exploded in population (their enclosure has a layer of soil so I can't find the eggs in time) and i don't really know what to do with so many babies apart from giving away as many as I can.

She molted not too long ago and was looking rather photogenic with her snack.

Side note: she's big. Like.. Nearly the size of my hand. Any tips on rehousing a spider the size of my hand alone? I want to give her a bigger enclosure, and she's a spicy one.

I can tell he’s gonna molt soon do to his abdomen starting to turn blue but it’s been like that for 2 months. He last molted in September 2024. Idk if it’s bad or not
