General Care for Lasiodora Species

[HERODES0009]

can you please post a caresheet for lasiodora klugi because i have 1 sling of it ryt now.... thank you very much... i hope for it..

[Jon3800]

@HERODES0009

There is no need. Just follow this caresheet. When its labelled "general care for lasiodoras" it applies to ALL of its members...

Klugi, difficilis, parahybana, fracta, itabunae and trinatus, they all can be cared the same way.

[HomicidalNun666]

unpacked my first Parahybana today, 3" female and an A versicolor 1/4 ". your videos are great

[activemailorder6]

I got a 6" female for $60 and a 4" male for $45(LP). My female is a really big bitch but my male is really calm, I've only handled him once but its seriously feels like a very heavy cactus walking on you....doesn't feel wonderful but it tolerable. My (LD) is only 3.5 inches but she can be a bigger bitch than my female (LP). Wish I lived closer to Canada.

[fantabulousK]

[Corpload]

how about lasiodora klugi, you owned any?....

any advice on L. klugi species?

[Jon3800]

@Corpload

the ones I owned are L.parahybana and L.difficilis. I imagine the kugi will be very similar

[MsKittenRD]

Thank you! I was thinking of getting a Brazilian Fire Red and your video helped a lot.

[pitbull1975]

Have you bred this breed before?

[Jon3800]

@pitbull1975

nope. The only species I bred was Poecilotheria pederseni

[tarantula1995]

i meant dude

[tarantula1995]

thanks man i feel real good about getting one after watching this video. It will be my

second after the G.Rosea

thanks dudu

[thund3rskunk]

do lp's tend to flick hairs or is it not that bad?

[Jon3800]

they can flick hairs, I haven't seen any of my 3 do it yet

[axent1234]

do you ever feed your salmon pink amy mice?

[Jon3800]

The 3 that I have are too small to offer mice. I will never feed mice to any of my tarantulas because it's dangerous. They can either be scratched or bitten from the initial meeting (if you use a good sized mouse) and the excess calcium that they intake, if they are fed mice too often, can cause severe molting problems

[donnaitalia]

nice i just got one of the fiery red t's i was searching for some tips and you coverd the whole nine yards...

[Jon3800]

thanks man, those fiery red's Ts are pure nasty

[sonofjohnrambo]

i was thinking of getting a T can you keep them like scorps and whats the best to starting T

[Jon3800]

I have made a 2 part series video on choices for new beginners, such the Ts from aphonopelma, avicularia, brachypelma , eupalaestrus and grammostola genus except rosea

[znallar]

Even G. Pulchra? arent they kinda unpredictable too?

[Jon3800]

in general most of the Grammstolas are preety unpredictable. One of my pulchripes tried to tag me when I was about to handle her

[MrTommy1959]

Jon, I received my L Parahybana(1 inch) and my B Smithi (1/2 inch)...I figure the LP can handle a pin head cricket. What should I do about the BS?? Is she big enough for a cricket? or...should I try feeding her a leg or something? She is so tiny!! Any help would be appreciated!

[Jon3800]

for an inch L.parahybana, they'll take anything . I feed my 1.5 inch sling sub adult- adult crickets, its fun watching her tackle it.

Your BS should be fine with pinheads, they're great, hungry eaters. Congrats on the buy

[MrTommy1959]

Yeah...pretty amazing buy actually. I bought them both with shipping for 28 dollars!!! I dont know if you've ever heard of paul becker....he is Awesome!!! PetCenterusa

[Jon3800]

i heard of him

[MrTommy1959]

Great T's, Great communication, Great service , great prices...what else could you ask for?

[Jon3800]

nice

[MrTommy1959]

I tried to feed them both...but they haven't been here but about 7 hours. Do they usually eat right away? or..should I wait a day or 2?

[mikmikey]

oh man your like my idol!!! :) i have a question i got my L. parahybana this week and i fed him like 4 times already. every day since i got him it just keeps on eating is that bad cause it looks like power feeding. i feed it lateralis about its body size excluding the legs jt just eats it up. so man is it bad?

[Jon3800]

ya, it is bad, because it is one of the few species besides acanthoscurrias that can be possible to overfeed. I would feed every couple of days are so. 4-7 days would be the norm

[yakxx3]
