I THINK HE ACT THAT WAY BECAUSE HE WAS TAKEN BY SURPRISE WITH THE CRIQUET;THERE IS A CRIQUET AND YOU SEE WHEN HE FEEL THAT,THEN HE REACT THAT WAY.and he walk away ,still looking at the criquet.
that can have many reasons,for example ,a criquet was there when he was molted and now he don't like criquets.iff he don't eat and he dos'nt have to molt,you can tried to remove the head of the criquet.but it can also be the caracter of the spider,auratums can be verry nervous!
My B smithi has done this when she was in her pre-molt process. I offered her a cricket with my foreceps, and as I was coming down with it to drop it, she jumped a good inch and a half off the substrate! At the time, that was her leg span! She bit the cricket in self-defense and did this cool spin, then ran under her bark. What was weird is she didn't kick hairs first..
The Brachypelma genus as a whole tend to grow extremely slowly, though individual specimens obviously grow at different rates. There's a big difference in a two- and three-year-old Brachypelma because this is when they're still growing a lot faster than when they mature (obviously). Typically, a two-year-old Brachypelma would be around 2.5"-3" I would say, and a three-year-old specimen would probably be 3.5"-4".
i know i'm replying to a post that's 2 years old, but i couldn't let it go without being corrected. the flame knee and red knee are 2 different species. Same genus, different species.
Brachypelma Smithi - Red Knee
Brachypelma Auratum - Flame Knee
it may not be noticable to those who don't pay much attention, but the differences are there.
I'm not trying to force any arguement, I'm simply stating that if you don't have the expertise to sex a T, you don't have the expertise to breed them either. If stating facts is trolling, then sure, I'm trolling. You're avoiding my question entirely, so you're not exactly "Professional" at what you're doing, and should not be giving out any advice to anyone, saying you can't sex Ts without equipment when you can. If anything sir, you're the troll.
spiders are not toys or for entertain you ! spiders are so wonderful animals ! this is not a good terrarium for a ts ! when you must living in a so little fucking plasticbox no real nature mmh ! look for the habitat where the spider comes from what she need ! sorry for my bad english ! greetings
@blue1860munich The T doesn't know the difference between plastic and glass, also, the lack of height makes this a better tank for a T because it cannot fall and injure itself, these boxes are recommended by the best T collectors, looks like a shoe box from the container store just because the tank isn't pretty doesn't mean its bad, the spider has walking room, a hideaway good substrate, and a water bowl.
Nice T btw. I want to get my girlfriend a B. Smithi soon. Gotta love the Brachypelma's!
the smithi is crazy because the ground is very wrong for this species. they need a ground like in the forrest, where they can dig holes and channels. on this fluffily ground this species getting mad.. thats all.
sure this spider is hungry, if a spider needs food u see, if u compare abdomen with the front part of the body, and if u look this video, the sider looks like starving... threating a beautiful being like this... shame on you(sorry for bad english isnt motherthoung)
What the fuck do you mean "she is hungry"? What are you, some kind of behavioural therapist for tarantulas? I bet you don't even own any. It did that jump BECAUSE it was trying to catch a cricket.
oh, you must be right then if your friend told you, you and your friend are right and every expert, every page on the net and every book ever published on the subject is wrong, is it? ........ i suggest that instead of your friend telling you bullshit, he should be telling you how to write sentences......
there is only one known, tried and proven way of sexing a tarantula (besides examining a molt) and that is only in the species that even have them, and that is tibial hooks, which are protrusions that stick out from the underside of the first two legs on either sides of the pedipalps. if your tarantula has tibial hooks, it is 100% certified male. they use those hooks to hold the female during mating. other than that, there is no way to guesstimate w/o a molt to examine.
@leeofbacup You are wrong. If you dont have the expertise dont talk. You can sex alot of Tarantulas venteraly. And pokies can be sexed dorsaly. Checking the spermathacae is the only 100% way, But not the ONLY way.
@leeofbacup Wait so you're telling me that you don't have time, nor the expertise to sex a T, and yet you're claiming to be a successful breeder and shop owner? If you don't have the expertise to sex a T, then you don't have the expertise to breed a T. Common knowledge.
females are generally bigger in size but not just the ass.... but thats piontless way to sex a T, because you might have a big male or a small female.... there is no way to tell the sex of a T without looking at the shed skin, for hooks on the front limbs, but these can be tiny...... try looking it up.....
nice i prefer mexican redleg luv that black triangle on the carpace very nice maby you should move it up a size or 2 more i mean its fine right now but by next molt maby bigger cage
this is one of the most wicked thing i ever seen, in 5 days from now i am getting a Brachypelma boehmei - Mexican rustleg...she's so beautiful...i can't wait
Docile? As docile as any wild animal can be =-) my vagans is pretty hateful of anything in her habitat.. once you get her out she's fair game to crawl around and explore and much less defensive.. They're not really aggressive. They don't just attack, First she gives warning signs like.. dude.. back away... i'm pissed.. and then she'll show you the display of fangs saying.. ok, one more step you're mine.. and then she'll strike. the only time she's ever bitten "at" me is when i as removing food
I've raised 3 different types of Brachypelma (Bhomei, vagans and auratum). They aren't particularly docile as much as they are tolerant. Grammostola Spatulata is a docile spider. Brachy's just wish to be left alone, and commonly don't show signs of aggression unless they are underfed or about to moult.
Believe it or not fucktards, The living conditions that spider has are not all that bad, I only have one concern though, The size. I think you should find a bigger home for... it looks like a male(Is it a Juvi?), I think more room = happier more docile Ts. Buts thats just my opinion.
Anyway, the soil in the water is normal. It happens alot. Oh and the soil looks like it needs to be remoistened or changed. Anyway, Hope you have fun with him/her/it xD.
I know this is an old comment, but sometimes my tarantula will fill his water dish with dirt an hour after I fill it. Am I supposed to stand by its cage all day ready to refill it?
Also, tarantulas aren't people. They don't care about "pretty homes." All they need/want is food, water, somewhere to hide and sufficient substrate depth/cage height if they're a burrowing/aboreal species.
that would be because your tarantula drowns in the water and needs help to drink it's water and also not drown.regular aquarium rocks work well so if you put then in their water source it will stop doing that
I stand corrected. The mp3 I downloaded several years ago was tagged as Marilyn Manson and I've never known different 'til now, vocals sound very similar. Cheers.
Ok, maybe 'not too dissimilar' would have been a better phrase. Compared at least to releases like Tainted Love (maybe only Tainted Love now I think of it). Not at all in his pre Grotesque days when he was still good; when he didn't release shitty pop rock covers of 80's tunes like that other band, Orgy, that released a shitty pop rock cover of an 80's tune that sounded a little bit like Marilyn Manson :)
