Any spider keepers on the site?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
A little update and a pic. Pic is of my Brazilian Salmon birdeater (Lasiodora parahybana) after its third molt (since I've had it at least). It's getting huge, about time for a bigger enclosure. I also took about 20 pictures of my small antilles pinktoe (Avicularia versicolor) but they all came out blurry, so I'm going to have to try again some other time. Right now my invert collection is:
1 Avicularia avicularia 4"
1 Avicularia versicolor 1"
1 Grammostola rosea 3/4"
1 Aphonopelma hentzi 1/2"
1 Pterinochilus murinus 1" (? it never comes out of its web-tower)
1 Brachypelma albospilosum 1/4"
and of course
1 Scolopendra polymorpha (tiger centipede 6")

I might be forgetting a few.

Avic's are arboreal spiders, meaning they climb. The taller the cage, the happier the spider. For fully grown arboreal spiders, we like to put 10g tanks on their side and give them a good deal of height.
