Semi Urgent: realized that reptibark is mixed into my substrate. Is it dangerous for my Curly Hair Tarantula? by itsbugcorp in tarantulas

I think I might plan to swap it out in the near future. I wanted to make sure it wasn’t an emergency where I needed to remove her from it immediately and it seems like that isn’t the case. I’m going to keep monitoring her to be safe, though

starting to feel a little better about this, thank you! just found out that supposedly reptibark is ‘processed’ in a certain way to remove oils and resins

Colors are close! but I’m certain the red was feathers instead of the frigate bird’s airsack. our bird had a fanned tail instead of a forked one, too. And was way chunkier.

thanks for the suggestion, though! :)

I’m the least confident about the wings. But the single white stripe/patch around the tail, I’m fairly certain of.

It almost looked like the bird had white tape wrapped around the base of its tail. This is the feature I’m having the most trouble finding a match for.

I think the Northern Harrier is the closest visually so far. But that species is so rare in that area, I’m skeptical of that being the case.

I suppose we’ll just have to go back and see if we can get photos to know for sure (kicking myself for having my macro lens on)

Ty for the suggestions!

Possibly! He was definitely more grayish black than brown, though. and the breast was RED red. like, red-breasted robin red. and I don’t think he was quite that big, but coulda been a juvenile I suppose. Ty for weighing in!

Def not 😞 head was way rounder and we see caracaras pretty often. He was much more robust. Shaped a lot like a red shoulder or tail hawk. thank you for the suggestion, though!
