I’ve had some trouble with wandering spiders as well, so I’ve taken a break from true spiders for a while. The only two which I have had reach maturity were the males of C.getazi- Rusty Red Wandering Spider and Ctenus captiosus- the Florida Wandering spider. I got my Red-Thigh Wandering Spider up to about the same size you do when they die. Also, just like you, I had just rehoused it into an Amac box with 1” screens for across ventilation, and the thing didn’t last but three days when I found it hanging lifeless in its molt. However, I did figure out that since it died in its molt, it was as a result of dry conditions. I will give it another try in 2022’ perhaps. I’ve also had trouble with the tiny exotic huntsman slings, I have kept. Only they died from wet, dank conditions and I thought if I gave them more ventilation, they would just escape. Instead they molded over. The only one I raised to a decent size was a Heteropoda venatoria, but that one escaped from me during a feeding and was gone. A lot of those leggy true spiders are lightning fast. I think the huntsman and wandering spiders are two of the fastest groups in on-foot sprinting. I have caught my fishing spiders on the run, by hand fairly easily. While fast, they are not the fastest or most agile. In my opinion.

[@daveslittlebeasties]

Keep trying mate I have cracked their care its now just to breed them I get plenty of sacks but they dry up inside ?

[@sidewaysonhighways]

@@daveslittlebeasties yea, I know. Thank you. I’ve been spending too much money this year to go any deeper down the rabbit hole with more inverts right now. Sounds like it’s always something with aeraneomorphs. Lol. I know of a guy whom is very successful at true spiders in the U.S. where I’m from. Would you like his name? He is on Facebook.

[@Joe-rm8rs]

What an outstanding spider Dave! The tiger striping on the legs is stunning and her behavior was in your favor. I noticed for a large spider that wanders the forest floor she can climb glass as well as any arboreal species! The food trick was absolutely brilliant and worked quite well, I wish you the best on her molt would be great to see a pairing video from this girl. Camera lady some outstanding video footage from you and your magical camera best of luck on this project Dave a very interesting species!!!🕷

[@derekfisher8571]

I have dealt with quick spoods. I have had two dark fishing spiders(Dolomedes tenebrosus). It's crazy how fast they can be. I would have never thought to feed them and rehouse while they're preoccupied. Well thought sir lol 👍

Interesting way of rehousing. I've always wondered if it would be possible to distract a tarantula with food during a rehouse, I'm thought about doing it but haven't had a chance to give it a try and I wasn't sure if it would stress the tarantula too much or not. Awesome video :)

Do you need a permit to keep these? Marks tarantulas keeps Phoneutra fera (with a permit) He keeps them in larger enclosures with great success (I just noticed that the tank you use doesn’t have front ventilation and this only works when you have front ventilation)

No you don't need a PERMIT for these , and I don't understand , what only works with front ventilation???

Hi buddy did you just put the plant in with the soil it came in do you use normal compost too 😂 because I was told compost and the soil the plants come in are no good for tarantulas 😂 not sure what to believe any more 😂

I just leave the root stock in what ever it came in I also just use regular compost to add to my own mulch that I collect and mix it together depending on what I want to achieve from it! I personally think there is an awful lot of rubbish spoken about these subjects by people without any real experience of there own , just regurgitating what has been read on the net , I only pass on what I have done for years without any problems it has worked for me and so hopefully it will work for others , most is just common sense that's all you need to be a good keeper.👍
