When my Male Curly hair molted for the final time, I was excited. I thought about how great it would be to maybe get a female for him or to send him off to someone else. I even had an offer for a female. Then the more I thought about it, and really weighed the pros and cons, I just don't want to take on any more right now. Other areas of my life are crazy right now.

You can't take that chance with crickets. A cricket would attempt to eat your tarantula. So good practice, regardless of prey, is to remove them... Read More
Milan, MI, 21 July, 2009: The other day, cleaning up the leftovers of Spring's crops (lettuce and peas), I encountered my first Enoplognatha ovata. She was beautiful: brilliant white, with two bright red stripes. Reading up on her, I discovered that E. ovata come in three varieties: White, white with red stripes, and (more or less) red. I HAD to see the red variety; so much so, this morning and evening found me searching the garden for the spider from the previous day in the hopes of cat... Read More
