why can i not stand bugs but i love spiders… we used to have around 35 tarantulas at one point in my moms house like that was so cool

#i had one it was an OBT (orange baboon tarantula aka orange bitey thing) #but sadly he starved himself to death alongside his food. rip king! #we also had one that was a whole foot long it was in a big ass cage but it broke its fangs off once by jusy biting at the top. why were they #why were they like that….. my mom took rly good care of all of them it was Her Thing #dunno. just remembered that #our first tarantula was a little baby guy like REALLY RLY TINY and he would always make little hills of dirt to sit on in his little cage #so my mom named him king of the hill (koth) for short we had him until we had to sell everything bc we had no monry

Fuck it man. Since I am officially getting my first tarantula, I'm dropping a TDIM tarantula au bc my research has inspired it.

Kate - OBT (Orange baboon tarantula, aka Orange bitey thing)

Def wanted to make her an old world T because they're usually more aggressive so like. fits her. Also its orange.

Mark - Brazilian black

Seen people call these the "puppy dogs of the tarantula world" so thats all u gotta know

Jamie - Cobalt blue

Wanted to also make her an old world and this one is just. cool as fuck and KINDA has her colours in a way.

Erin - Curly hair

They're fluffy and cute. Also one of the least aggressive ones.

Charlie - Greenbottle blue

Bc out of all the Ts I've been looking at, I think abt these ones the least. Just like how I think about Charlie the least. (JKJKJKJK its bc it kinda looks like him idk)

everyone say hi to the newest spider babies!! Prohibition (Gatsby's Bourbon Bribe AKA GBB. Prohibition is her short name), a C. cyaneopubescens, and Mango Salsa, a P. murinus. P. murinus is also known as OBT (orange baboon tarantula/orange bitey thing) and is the patron tarantula of the Tarantula marines that their colour scheme is based on :3

I know you’re still waiting for Bestiary content. Soon, soon, I hope. I have an announcement to make, though. I have a few “dream animals” I’d like to own including a kenyan sand boa and P. murinus (AKA Orange Baboon Tarantula AKA Orange Bitey Thing.) One of my dream critters is rare in the pet trade lately because they aren’t bred as much anymore. There are similar species with nicer coloration, so people have tended to go for those. ANYWAY. An actual Theraphosa blondi sling became available, and I jumped at the opportunity. T. blondis are commonly known as the Goliath birdeater and they’re the largest spider in the world! It’ll be arriving on Tuesday and I’ll have pictures!
