Tom's Big Spiders - Tarantulas and Inverts
A podcast devoted to the proper care and upkeep of tarantulas and other inverts. After keeping a G. porteri for over 16 years, I decided that I wanted to add another tarantula to my collection. Several years later, I now keep over 100 specimens and 90+ different species. It’s safe to say that I am now completely addicted to the hobby. I’m NOT an expert, and I’m currently still learning about keeping these fascinating creatures. In fact, there are so many species, that I suspect that I’ll still be learning years from now. A teacher by trade, I enjoy passing along what I’ve information and techniques I’ve discovered and helping others in their successful pursuit of this hobby. I enjoy hearing from folks, whether through comments on the blog or email. I have done and continue to do a lot of research, and I will only be discussing animals I personally keep, so the information I present should be current and accurate.

Does an Aggressive Feeding Schedule Impact Longevity?
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Every once in a while, I get an email from a listener that really makes me think about how I phrase things (or makes me reconsider theories that I hold to be true). In this episode, I respond to some recent correspondence involving the topics of tarantula durability as well as "power feeding" and its potential impact on tarantula longevity.
Thank you do Dani for the topic idea!
