My wife and I finally got into the arachnid game recently, adding this beautiful little Curly Hair Tarantula to our family! Obtained at the 2023 NY Metro Reptile Expo, this Tliltocatl albopilosus is native to areas of the rainforest in Nicaragua and Costa Rica and is an opportunistically burrowing species. It’s also a great starter spider, as Curly Hairs are highly adaptable to humidity and temperature changes, feed readily on commercially available crickets and superworms, and are typically docile.
As for her name, the Breaking Bad superfan in me had to go with Lydia – a reference to the woman Todd Alquist becomes obsessed with and the tarantula he keeps after murdering Drew Sharp. 🕷️

Is it normal for curly hair tarantulas (Tliltocatl albopilosus) to go into hiding and then never come out?
Back in December I upgraded my tarantula to a 5 gallon aquarium filled with substrate (far deeper substrate than she had in her previous enclosure). She promptly dug deeeeeep into the substrate beneath her hide, creating a massive berm that looks like a half-hearted attempt at a crawfish hole. She threw a few superficial strands web over that opening. She then dug out the back to create the narrowing opening for entrance and exit.
She has stayed in her little hobbit hole ever since. I drop crickets as the rear entrance and she doesn't refuse them, so I know she's still alive.
Is this normal behavior? I'm going to need to change out her substrate at some point soon and I'm not sure how I'll manage to do it safely and with as little stress to her as possible unless she comes out.

My mature male T.albo, Vax'ildan, died today :( He was one of the three tarantulas I got when I first started keeping them back in 2020. He matured out in November, and males can live anywhere from a few weeks to a full year once they mature, so he lived another 4 months which isn't too bad. I'll miss this floofy guy. I pinned him just now and plan to frame him once he dries out. ❤️
