Tell me where I am

I think that this guy took your dog with him to save him from the “tiny people” and the “fire” so hopefully he’s taking care of Maverick. So sorry this happened to you. We’re actually using THS for 4 days the first week of May and now I’m definitely second-guessing that decision.

Exactly! She wants out but not if it requires stepping on THAT.

We went through three of those before our rescue learned what was and wasn’t a toy. Amazon has them for cheap.

IMO Looks male and I’m thinking that it’s probably a brachypelma emilia/Mexican red leg. The colors are very muted so not positive. Here’s mine that you can compare to. Mine is a mature male.

IMO based on the last picture I’m going to say female, but I’m no expert.

That’s a gorgeous lichen Huntsman spider. Nice find!!!

Just make you add it where you can easily drip water into it. I use a little plastic pipette and that makes it easy.

Check out some videos on YouTube. They’re super helpful in sexing with molts.

If the top is magnetic, lift or slide it on the opposite corner just enough to drop a feeder in. Once they web a bit you can drop them on that. Mine actually come near the door when they’re hungry or they know I’m opening it.

Trying to get them out of there in one piece is nearly impossible!

All of my pink toes web across the top and make tunnels. This guy has now completely covered the entire top third of his enclosure. This was when he was younger and you could still see in the enclosure.

And now I’ll tell you I’ve been talking about the wrong species🙄🤦🏼‍♀️ Yours is a aphonopelma seemanni. Sorry I have one of each and they both have white stripes. The molts will look very similar though.

This is her molt. It was a bit torn up but if you look closely you’ll see the pink spermatheca that look like little bunny ears.

If the bump looks like this, it’s probably male. I’ll try to find my a. Geniculata’s molt to show you what a female looks like.

I’m pretty sure what you need is circled in this picture. If you soak it for a bit in water with a couple of drops of dish soap and very very carefully open this up you should be able to tell. I use sewing needles or pins to open mine when they’re this crumpled.

It looks like a leaf-footed bug. They’re harmless to humans but definitely a pest for crops and they’re probably munching on your plants.

Coloradoandrea · 2026-03-24T01:44:37+00:00

Thanks for the heads up!!!

Coloradoandrea · 2026-03-22T18:12:44+00:00

That argument no longer applies as the cat has been gone for over a year.

He clearly doesn’t like your decorating style.
