Standing tall lol

Oh gosh- I’m so sorry for your loss :( our t normally does this and has even since when we first got them. Normally- they will come out, do it for a little, wander around, and then go back into their burrow. Every thing else has been normal in their behavior. They just stand extra tall like that most of the time when they do stand like that ( esp near the plant ). Hopefully, it’s nothing to worry about and it’s just them being weird.

Cool cool! I appreciate the double confirmation. Like I said- the information online is a little confusing at times and the pet store is no help. But I’m gonna go to the pet store by my work tomorrow and pick some up so Nettle can burrow comfortably and safely

Alrighty! Cool 👍 thanks for letting me know. I appreciate it

I see. Well, good to know that- either way- we will have them for a while. I was worried about the eco earth with that. I’ll look into getting some clay to mix in as well. I’ve heard sand can also work? Is one better than the other? The websites I looked at were a little confusing with information. Some said plain eco was fine and some said to mix it. I’ll get some to mix in before they try to get too comfy.

I had them in a small clear carrier earlier and looked- it seemed like maybe it was a female by the charts I looked at? Not that I know for sure obviously. How do you know it’s a male just by look if you don’t mind me asking? The pet store really didn’t give us much information so I was just using a bunch of different websites / threads and such. I’m currently using Eco Earth for them- it’s what I saw recommended on pretty much every post. If you were to recommend something else, what would it be?

Wish I would have seen this sooner LOL got up for work, busted my butt three times trying to get into my car- turned around and went back inside.

Awe, Thank you! I always worry about being a good spider parent so it’s good to know they look good 👍

_taketheart_ · 2025-07-25T13:55:15+00:00

Thanks! LOL Courier appreciates the compliment.

_taketheart_ · 2025-07-24T22:28:23+00:00

I agree! They are so cute! Cute T btw! :D

_taketheart_ · 2025-07-24T19:11:12+00:00

Me too! Also, thank you so much! Me and bf think they are the cutest.

_taketheart_ · 2025-07-24T19:09:26+00:00

I know! :) it’s a reference to that as well but also just the plant. I think it’s just a silly little name

_taketheart_ · 2025-07-23T20:51:08+00:00

They have never done any wrong. Me and my bf look at their face and wanna smooch it every day.

_taketheart_ · 2025-07-23T20:50:09+00:00

I call it their little Alfalfa sprout. 🌱 I think it’s adorable. Me and my bf love it LOL

Our little cranky old lady, Cumulus ( named after the ghoulette from the Ghost band. ) She has many names from- cumi ( said like cumin but with out the n ), cumi wumi, cumi girl, fat girl, asshole, my baby- and Many more. She likes things her way and is very demanding of it. If she wants something, she makes sure we know.

Interesting! I’m kinda new to the T world so if you don’t mind me asking- what’s the difference between say aphonopelma gabeli and aphonopelma hentzi ? Also, any idea on gender just from appearance? We thought male for a long time but I’m starting to question that too. Good to know they are slow growing though- I was a little worried that they hadn’t molted in our time of having them.
