  • A brief description on the care of my favorite Avicularia, the Antilles Pinktoe Avicularia versicolor. I had to upload it again as the video was messed up the first time, I apologize and hope you get to see it fixed:)

    most people would not even dare to enter your tarantula room but to us Tarantula lover's (me at least) it would be like a 5 year old at Disney on a haribo high

    What does it mean if the Versicolor doesn’t feed and the web feet is weak ?

      As long as there is no chance they could fall over and crush the spider.

    I got bit by a feather leg baboon that resulted in hospitalization and residual pain, severe muscle cramps and various other symptoms for a month after the bite. I never wanna be bitten again. I've been keeping tarantulas for 31 years and that was my first ever bite.

    Can i use a 5.5 quart for a sling/adult versicolor?

    I've heard you can keep more than one in an enclosure... is that true?

      +Marcell Love Yes, but you will only have one in the end. Versicolor is cannibalistic:)

    When it bit you what stage was it? And did it hurt? xx

    Love your channel! You mentioned that C. Versicolor was the only T to bite you. Mine just bit me this morning (my first bite!) She wasn't trying to bite me, but she used her fangs to hoist herself up onto my hand. It was a dry bite, not too bad, but there was blood! I wonder if arboreal T's are more inclined to do this while climbing.

    so you soak the full substrate weekly? I will make lots of holes on the container I keep them but with the sling care, how do I provide them water? they drink it from substrate?

    • @MaritaDeLaPenaDTG
      @MaritaDeLaPenaDTG  7 років тому +1

      They will get most of their hydration from the food they eat, but spraying the sides of their container and their web will allow them to drink from there. Don't soak the substrate, just soak a portion of it.

    If I were to buy a T online in the USA where would you suggest ordering from? I live in Missouri so the closer the better. I was also wondering if you had your own shop since you seem to breed them fairly often. Thanks

    dear dtg, many thanks from austria for your great video series. my daughters of 5 and 8 years got a curly hair a few months ago and now they have been bitten by the proverbial bug (excuse the pun). now they want a versicolor. i am wondering, what are those plastic containers you use with the screw top? cant seem to find them on the web. thanks again. martin

    • @MaritaDeLaPenaDTG
      @MaritaDeLaPenaDTG  7 років тому

      Jeanne ive seen one baby at my local pet shop but youre probably better off getting one from a reputable breeder online.

    • @MaritaDeLaPenaDTG
      @MaritaDeLaPenaDTG  6 років тому

      From most invertebrate retailers or some pet stores. I recommend Swift Invertebrates.

      @MaritaDeLaPenaDTG  8 років тому

      +Markus Konradsson It was painless and quick, not bad at all. I was very surprised at the bite so that may be why I didn't feel it. Greetings from New Mexico:)

    Sorry for all the questions Marita but do you have a T blondi if so could you please do a video. I have been after one for ages but they are sooo hard to come by in the UK. I have 4 female and 2 male T stirmi's and everyone says they are quite similar. If you could do a video I would be very greatful. Thanks hun

    • @MaritaDeLaPenaDTG
      @MaritaDeLaPenaDTG  8 років тому

      +Carrianne Tough No problem, ask me anything you like. I do not have any blondi, I am so sorry. If I am ever fortunate enough to get one, I will definitely do a video:)

    one last thing.. I've owned pokies before but where is the best place to purchase another?

    • @MaritaDeLaPenaDTG
      @MaritaDeLaPenaDTG  8 років тому

      +Marcell Love I would look for local breeders, if you can"t find any, Swiftinverts is excellent and Pet Center and Stamps tarantulas are a couple other places:)

    I want to use lucky bamboo for my Avicularia Versicolor. The only idea I have to keep the root system healthy is to basically have a fishbowl at the bottom with gravel, a fish, and a small moss ball. Is that a good idea or a bad idea??
