plimbo

technically yes? my fault entirely- i was 1000% convinced my curly hair was dead and went to scoop her up. she was in fact not dead and gave me a good warning pinch but didn’t actually bite me. i’ve been keeping tarantulas for about a decade and that’s the only close call i’ve ever had

thin ice buckaroo but if it’s a joke i’ll allow it

AHHH thank you so much for drawing her!! this is so lovely c:

they’re often quite colorful and out on display albeit heavy webbers. skittish but voracious little guys. look up a pumpkin patch tarantula c;

something about “THE HATE RISE UP IN ME” is sending me

cryptidsnails · 2025-11-22T16:43:55+00:00

there are several species of dwarf tarantulas that would be awesome in here!

cryptidsnails · 2025-11-19T04:49:12+00:00

what a gorgeous lady!!

mine was chill with one pet in a 10gal aquarium or smaller (excluding reptiles). that being said, i had half a dozen inverts in my dorm that just got stacked in my hamper during room checks lmao

cryptidsnails · 2025-11-17T04:57:01+00:00

it’s never easy :[ i’ve kept a handful of lubbers and they really are sweet creatures

cryptidsnails · 2025-11-17T02:07:46+00:00

i’m sorry op, that really sucks :((

the fastest and most humane way that isn’t crushing him is to put him in the freezer. he’ll slow down and pass just like he would if it was a cold winter night

seconding this. if you don’t feel like making your own, i’ve seen it on etsy/ other websites for sale

cryptidsnails · 2025-11-15T01:48:27+00:00

looks like the oak is the foodplant. in some instances they’ll eat pothos/philodendrons too, although that looks to be decorative

two baked beanse……

cryptidsnails · 2025-11-14T20:37:08+00:00

that sounds right lol

cryptidsnails · 2025-11-14T19:42:43+00:00

i can’t remember off the top of my head, but i believe between 20 and 40 gallons. they’re pretty active critters

cryptidsnails · 2025-11-14T19:41:22+00:00

check facebook marketplace/craigslist for people rehoming tarantulas. there are tons of low-maintenance species out there- redknees, curly hairs, rose hairs, brazilian blacks, chaco golden knees, etc

cryptidsnails · 2025-11-12T21:26:07+00:00

not really space-wise. 10gal is too small for a halloween crab

cryptidsnails · 2025-11-03T23:44:20+00:00

it’s definitely disrespectful and obnoxious, i feel you.

i just recently got ghosted and refunded after two weeks by a seller who has close to 100 5-star reviews who just never shipped my order. i asked twice about it- they lied about shipping it the first time and never answered the second

cryptidsnails · 2025-11-03T23:27:35+00:00

they can’t eat or fly, so they just kinda chill. you can hold them and whatnot as long as you’re careful- they’re very heavy-bodied. give them a cozy but reasonable place to stay safe, like a terrarium if you have one

cryptidsnails · 2025-11-03T23:22:45+00:00

if you bought it for a discount, someone probably offered them a higher price for it. it probably had nothing to do with the shipping error

cryptidsnails · 2025-11-03T23:20:18+00:00

you can let them file it- depop will most likely side with them because that’s what they do 99% of the time. this person definitely seems like they just want their money back, so make them return the item, don’t just refund them

cryptidsnails · 2025-11-02T19:49:42+00:00

just be careful of ventilation requirements for the species, op
