@anitec19 Well it all depends on what you want. I can't give you much info on personal experience of an Emperor Scorpion because I have never owned one, but Pink toes are generally a good T to get. I've enjoyed everyone of the ones I've had the pleasure of owning. Pink toes are a little more active compared to some emperors I've seen, so if you want an active pet go with the Pink toe if not then the scorpion. Either way, their both great investments :)
@vman1223 if you go the emperor routPPPLLLLLEEEEEEAAAAASEEEE, dont put it on sand(like most pet shops do),they are native to west africa(jungle and rain forest) they like it on the dark side,humid,they like to dig into the substrate,and a nice wide shallow water bowl in wich they will get into,put in a half log and they will use it to dig a burrow into it and just sit at the entrance to it.and feed it just 2 crickets per weekmist once a week keep temps at around 80-85 degrees.it wuill be happy
im going to start owning tarantulas and i cant decide between the mexican red knee, or the pink toe because their both awesome, im thinking maybe the mexcian red knee to start off and get a bit of experience for what it is like than get a pink toe? and also i might sound dumb but it doesnt bother me, how do you keep a high humidity for this tarantula?
@RipYourHead0ff You can keep the humidity high by using different types of substrate and just misting it a couple times a day. I have never owned a B. Smithi, but I have handled them countless times. Pink toes are a little more "jumpy" when startled but overall a Pink toe is a good choice. The redknee is a better choice if your a beginner because they aren't as jumpy and are really docile, plus their cool as well. If you have more questions feel free to message me. Thanks for watching
@RipYourHead0ff I had cocunut fibre as my bedding and it held moisture really well. I'd pour lots of hot water on one side of the tank (opposite side of where my pink toe had made its web) and it would slowly evaporate from the coconut bedding and keep the tank humid. I would also spray the tank sometimes, but not often as it wasn't always needed. Make sure you also use hot water though because they like 28-32 Celcius degrees.
neither are aggressive trust me i got 1 rose hair now and owned 10...none has bit me...i got 3pink toes now...pink toes u can put in the same cage together...
@twitchisastar17 This is generally true. In my experience, males have been more docile, but they tended to be a bit more jumpy. As where the females, sure they'd show their fangs, but you can't "tame" a tarantula. Either way their my favorite tarantula and I would recommend them :)
Yes Only Rose Hair Tarantulas Like Too Be Held, With Pink Too Like Too Run Away,
If Like The Pink Too Always Get It Ass a Baby Not A Adult So It Gets Use Too You, Rose Hair Tarantulas Remember Males Are Allays The Best Too Get, Females Bite Without Warning,
i got a pink toe today but when i held it it run up my arm very quickley then onto my back the it jumped onto my bed. its very fast so im a bit nervous to handle it now do u have any advise? great vid m8
i would tell you the name of the song but i dont know it :/ when i first uploaded this video i had no songs on my laptop so i used a song that youtube had for me to use when u upload videos its called audio swap. hope that helped some and thanks for veiwing :)
He's so cute! I've had a chilean rose hair tarantula for 8 years and I've never heard of a "Pink Toe" before yesterday. Awesome, I've gotta get me one now.
well it all depends on the size of their enclosure but generally pink toes can live together with enough space to do their own thing..as for two you should be fine with a 20 gallon tank :)
from my understanding you cant let any of them build big webs, they will see that as the other tarantulas territory and will end up killing each other over this.
r pink toes good for handling and also im thinking of getting a T and i was wondering if a pink toe would b a good 1 for nubs plz reply abd thanks in advance
if you have never had one before then start off with a rose hair or a mexican redknee those are better starters. pink toes are jumpy and are kind of hard to keep alive if you are a nub. with a rose hair all you would need is some substrate, a few logs/sticks and a water dish and a place to hide if you would like more info just send a message to my inbox :)
i have the pink toe in 10 galon tank and each week i put in there like 15 crickets. and wen is time to put more i see like 9 i don`yt know if i`m donig right. i have never see her eating and i don`t konw if she is aeting. i have lke 2 months with the pink toe and i have never see molting. can you help me out pliss
well if ur putting 15 in a week and theres still some in there after that week switch it to feeding him/her every 2 weeks because the crickets could stress it out to the point of death. as far as the molting do you keep the tank humid enough?
due one question how long pink toe live and how many timea pink toe molt in a year can someone tell me i`m new wih this and it will be somuchs helpful
Yeah, even though some disagree, T's can get used to being handled. They associate the warmth and movement of your hands as non-threatening. My emperor scorpion is the same way.
I just bought my boyfriend a pink toe today for his birthday. I am very scared of spiders but i figured this would help me get over my fear. If i'm a little shaky and scared to hold the spider should i not? ive heard they can sense these things and they usualy get upset, is this true? Is it alright to have moss and bark in her aquarium or should i just pick one? Sorry if i am asking to many questions. I got a heat rock for her will that be enough? thanks :)
nope they dont bite, usually, it all depends on the temperament of the one you get. Pink toes are generally very docile though jumpy at times, but still a good choice to get =)
Wow she looks nice lol, the way my tank is set up though is just a regular tank on its side, so I have to take the whole side off to get to "Agatha," what I named here haha. So the all you do is push her abdomen a little and she'll eventually make her way onto your hand?
Yea, only her front legs are up. So I just put my hand right in front of her, and she put her front 2 legs on my finger tips, but it seems like she got spooked and kind of lunged forward like she wanted to bite. Not sure if this was one of those mood swings they're known for, or if it wanted me to back off.
mine does that to its not a mood swing its just the type of T they r its in their nature to be jumpy and skittish sometimes thats the way pink toes r lol and im puting more vids of my other Ts up soon =)
this is a spider!
