Neostenotarsus sp suriname. A beautiful tarantula that reaches a size of about 3". Interestingly, Martin Gamache and Tom Patterson have noted color variations of purple and green within the same sac. Apparently only mature males show the color difference though. fearnottarantulas.com
Sure is better to fall back than spring forward! 😂😂 Is anyone awake with me? The next order that is at least $100 will have free shipping! fearnottarantulas.com. 💚 Just choose the shipping option "I'm awake" at checkout! The option will disappear soon!
Can you help with shipping times?
Insomniacs specials...now this I like 😊💖
Awesome thanks
Ok. I have to bring this to a close now. 🤘🤘
Sad I missed it but y’all are the best

October Mystery Spider Reveal!youtube.com
Ron Purcell
Now I can’t wait for November T’s!
Yay! I guessed right 🙂 I got my p machala at an expo last week, but it was my guess of what one was. 🙂
Happy I guessed right for Holly’s Hellion! Very pleased with my sling.
Brian, we were so wrong except the Pamphobeteus machala.
Ephebopus Rufescens T molted last night while I was asleep. That didn't take long!
The illegal market for tarantulas is hairy business
nationalgeographic.com
Little studied, these spiders are the object of a booming illicit trade as pets and display pieces.
Yet local governments in other countries destroy their habitats. The breeders are the ones keeping the species alive and flourishing.
The more interest there is in tarantulas the more research will be put to them, so the pet trade can be good and bad. I wonder why P. metallica wasn't on the ban list like the other 5 were.
Interesting article. I will finish reading it tonight. Question tho, do you or should you be licensed to breed and sell T’s?
Ray Regler
So is there a risk of it being made illegal to buy or sell them?
I understand the threat to them in the wild, but what does it mean to us who keep them in captivity?
People continue to think breeding in captivity by hobbyists can save the species that are threatened. Maybe with proper direction and funding it could happen. The point of the whole article is there is a lot of both legal and illegal trade of T's. The impact of which has not been established because lack of funding etc. To say it's habitat destruction that is the cause without admitting the role of poaching is misguided. The following excerpt is from the USFWS about the role of captive tarantulas and why they are unsuitable for reintroduction etc. (This was taken from some of the recent pokie bans). "Individuals of these species that are held or sold as pets hold limited conservation value to the species in the wild because they are not genetically managed for conservation purposes. Individuals in the pet trade descend from wild individuals from unknown locations, have undocumented lineages, come from limited stock (e.g., see Gabriel 2012, p. 18), and are bred without knowledge or consideration of their genetics. They also likely include an unknown number of hybrid individuals resulting from intentional crosses, or unintentional crosses resulting from confusion and difficulty in species taxonomy and identification (Gabriel 2011a, pp. 25-26; Gabriel et al. 2005, p. 4; Gabriel 2003, pp. 89-90). Further, many are likely several generations removed from wild ancestors and thus may be adversely affected by inbreeding or maladapted to conditions in the wild. In short, captive individuals held or sold as pets do not adhere to the IUCN guidelines for reintroductions and other conservation translocations (IUCN 2013, entire). Further, we are not aware of any captive-breeding programs for Poecilotheria that adhere to IUCN guidelines."
We had such an incredible time in Chicago at the Tinley expo! Myles, Damian, and Justin did a great job manning the tables. Thank you to our family, Brenda, Dana, Mia, Lilly, and Grace for hosting the Fear Not team and helping at the show! Thanks to Snake Discovery for the awesome interview!Here's our Tinley Park adventure at the North American Reptile Breeders Conference (NARBC)! It was an awesome show, with lots of great animals and people! Th...
Myles Masterson, Damian Foreman, Justin Romick, Brenda Stewart, Dana Roberson Kalombo. Thank you!
Most of the Fear Not team is pictured in this photo that, interestingly, accurately depicts some personalities as well!😇 Someone (you will have to guess who) 😉😉has a birthday coming up on Wednesday ... yes, a Halloween birthday! 🎃🎃
This person packs most of the spiderlings that go to our customers and has to be one of the best spider packers in the country. We ship out quite a large number every week and I don't know anyone who can get so many spiderlings safely packed in the time that she does. She is invaluable here at Fear Not and I know our customers appreciate the many things she does to ensure the safe arrival and nice presentation of orders.
So please help us make her birthday special! 🎉🎉🎉
Happy birthday
Best spider team out there!
Happy birthday!

When will you have the Caribena Versicolor complete package available again?
I joined the forum. Is the code still available.
Is there a way to get ahold of you? I have some questions
That is badass
I placed 2 orders last night, tried to use the coupon code but forgot to add orders together. If you can please double check my orders I would appreciate it.
How long is the coupon Valid?
Where do i find the availability lists
Seriously Betsy... I just caught one in my house a day ago, geeze!!
Isaac Angel, lookie. Adrian AlvaradoAdrian too. Lookie.
Dreya Sigarroba-Jaquez
Attention Richmond...there are a large number of tarantulas in the area!!! Come see us at the Raceway today!! 😊😊😀
You guys should come up to the Manchester New Hampshire expo you would make a killing
Do you attend the Hamburg Reptile Show in PA?
When are yall coming to Texas?!
Would be cool to have you guys out here in Florida 🕷
Denver maybe? *begs*
Thanks for helping pick one out. You were extremely helpful and knowledgeable!
I need to live closer.
Come to Huntsville Alabama
Wish I'd been able to grab a few things. Hate holidays
Phormictopus auratus (Cuban Bronze Tarantula). Every time we sell one of these spiderlings and it is paid for using PayPal, the customer's order is put on hold. I am then notified that I may be selling something forbidden or illegal 👩⚖️ and have to contact them to clarify! I'm thinking it has some red flags in the name! 😂😂
You're about to get flooded with orders for one. You do realize this, right? lol!
It is the word "Cuban" that gets the transaction flagged.
I bought a sling from you guys at the Tinley expo and hands down my favorite T right now! It’s got the most out going personality when I disturb its enclose instead of running in its hide it jumps on top of the hide and throws hands at me 😍 love it. Also best feeding response I’ve ever seen.
Christine Torres
Cuban trade embargo. Remove the word Cuban.
Just use the scientific name proper name. Now I have more reasons to not like common names😂
Denver Smart
October Mystery Spiders are now available! Order by midnight October 30th! 🎃🎃🕷️🕷️🕸️🕸️ $50 plus shipping for the spider and habitat!

They decided to use haiku poems to describe their chosen species, so it is short and .... kind of sweet. 😉😉
Damian’s Nightmare:
As true as they come
Columbians do it best
I. Web. Everything.
Holly’s Hellion:
Stripes rapidly pounce
The warm rainforest is life
I’m the triple threat
Myles' Spooky Spider:
I live in a hole
My colors are exquisite
Now you are convinced
Justin’s Jack-O-Lantern:
Avians beware
south Ecuador is my lair
See beauty and stare
These are always so much fun. Once I’ve hit 18m with the arboreals im gonna do this- I just want to make sure I’ve got enough experience!
I’m buying them on Monday 😍😍😍
Kat Aklb 😉
Are they all New World's?
Can you tell us the size? Are the slings?
I was kicking myself for missing last months so I’m definitely not missing this one!
The only one I don’t have a guess for is Holly’s. If I’m right, they’re all great deals.
Myle’s haiku 🤣🤣👌
Could this be extended to the 31st please ?? ~
Are they all atleast tarantulas? Some of them sound interesting haha but I don't want any true spiders ATM
Oooo how fun! To bad my wife would make me sleep on the lawn if I get another T!
Shared
Deja Shivers you should pick one 🙂
My girlfriend and I enjoy buying the surprises!

Lexi Straffon
Desiree
So want one
So you can still do p sazimai stuff across state lines?
I just recieved yet another package from Fear Not the other day. 100% satisfied, as always. Great prices, amazing packaging, healthy and active animals. Cant beat em! Thanks again guys👍
Was there a portal that sucked up the world's C. Versi populations? Lol
It always amazes us to see them molt into spiderlings! This picture shows the huge difference between the stages. Grammostola iheringi (Entre Rios).
Adorable little floofs!
Never seen such a fuzzy spider
That’s crazy! It resembles a trap door spider before it gets all that fuzz!
So fluffy!
And bam!!! All the floof!!!
Love this species!
So coooool
ZOMG!!!😍😍😍
Ok ok, who put it in the dryer!? They are dry clean only.
SO FLUFFY
Congrats!!!! Nice job!! I will have to pick up a couple slings

What a privilege it was to be part of 4 biology classes today. The Fear Not team had a great time telling students about the tarantulas we breed and raise up. We broke up in 3 groups so everyone had the opportunity to feed, have a close encounter, and learn about breeding and the molt cycles.
That's so neat and awesome of you guys to do!
I would totally love to do that
This is awesome! I wish I had something like this when I was a kid.
This is great! How cool!
That is awesome!
I did this myself (young kids but have done 2 events so far). This feeling makes everything worth it great job fear not
This is something I wish I could do. I have taken some of my Ts to my kids class rooms for like show and tell. I had all the kids sit in their seats and I walked around the classroom with the tarantula in a clear safe container. I think I only had one kid who was scared but he was still curious.💖
That's so badass 😀
I do this with our local 4-Hers and FFA chapter plus the biology classes.
This is so great! ❤️
This is so amazing! I wish I could do this for a living ♥️
Fantastic!!
dream job
That’s amazing ! I love the work you guys do ~
That's so cool.
That's kind of what my daughter is looking to do for her Girl Scout Silver Award project!
That's really cool! I had a teacher in high school who I didn't get along with. During detention one morning she showed me her snakes that she had in her class room. Which I was afraid of. It sparked my love for snakes and other exotics. And I never had another issue with her after that. We got along very well. Those experiences can be very powerful and really open someone's world. Well done.
This is so awesome.
I can't wait to order my baby from u I'm excited
Very cool guys, keep it up!
Sandy Gain Laustra !!! this is what i wanna do!
That is super awesome of you guys! Which species did you bring there?
I think that is terrific! Perhaps teaching young people about tarantulas will break the chain of fear for these misunderstood creatures
Having a great time at Tinley!
Next year!!! Tho hoping you brought extra enclosures you can send with Dustin for me lol
I wish we could have stayed longer ! My little guy was so grumpy because it was nap time.
I absolutely loved you guys! 10000000/10 will do again!
Hey guys , long time no see. Glad your doing good.
I got some amazing spiders from you thanks
Fantastic all around had high expectations and you guys went way past them, thanks for the spooders!
Above and beyond my expectations! Thank you again! My new skeleton leg and gbb have both already claimed their first meal when we got home.
My little Chromatopelma was all “nom-nom” when we got home too!! ❤️🕷
What do you listen to on a long drive to a cool expo? Tom Moran - Tom's Big Spiders ...of course!
Great idea! I love his podcasts
I still dont know how to subscribe to a podcast or where to listen to them
50 shades of gray
Lol, it is a ritual of mine to listen to Toms podcasts on my way into work every Sunday night!
YESSSS!!
Subscribed! Thanks for the suggestion!
Tom has taught me so much and he doesn't even know it lol.
Just listened to this one this morning. Love his podcast!
Will you guys have any Pamphobeteus at Tinley? Tanya Stewart
Holly and Damian working magic to get about 1500 spiders in the van for Tinley!

Slinging the slings...
Hell ya looking forward to the xpo!

Yay Marshalls! Great luck at the event Stephanie Alvarado and all your guests! Ly.
Safe shopping!
Cant wait to see you guys!!!
Omg adorable 😍😍😍
What species is this?
I hate when they do this. Lol it makes me feel bad that they're scared!
My t does this she has a long tunnel web and instead of hiding during the day she sits right out in the sun covering her face
David Bowie spider? 🤔
H. davidbowie?
So true
Isaac Angel look how cute!
I knew this picture was familiar 😂
my gbb's favorite pose
Will you guys have any female GBBs soon?
Never seen this my gbb just flicks hairs when he's pissed. Lol.
He's peeking 🤓
I'll do a stomp the yard on that mf lol
Oct 13-14 Come see us at the North American Reptile Breeders Conference at Tinley Park in Chicago. We will have over 100 species of tarantulas available! Rehousing and feeding demonstrations are planned as well as lots of other fun things. Great deals abound so come on by. Be sure to introduce yourself - we love putting faces to the names of our customers!
Will you guys be at the NW Reptile & Exotic Animal Expo?
We can’t wait to see y’all!
Cant wait to see you guys!!!
Wish I could go!!!!
I'll be there to check out ur spiders forsure I mist out on a deal I wanted to get
Do you ever come to California?
Blue one's are my favorite
Awesome pics!
I forgot to ask, will you guys have habitats at Tinley? or should i order and have you bring some specifically? (its' just occurred to me, i've got 4 spiders on the way, and i've run out of M&M jars from Costco to put them in...)
my t's will be here in the morning. My daughter and I are super excited.
Man I wish I could go. All the tarantulas I got from you guys are doing pretty well. I can't wait for them to get a little bigger.
Nova Eurich
Will you guys have g pulchra at Tinley
Shawnee Smith We should go!!!!
Wow 😯
Spiders are absolutely gorgeous creatures, its more unfortunate that i love them and my family hates them.
Jenna Flores-Rubi Mike Watson 😂
Denice Kraft
Cool
Myles posted this on The Tarantula Collective and we wanted to share it here. We have more than just tarantulas here at Fear Not. Here's "Butterscotch" our Scolopendra gigantea grabbing a dubia while we prep some slings for Tinley!
Isn’t their venom kinda scary? I love the look of those but would be a bit nervous having one around!
Down right adorable
Priscilla Callahan I got you a new pet!
Some of those slings are ours!!!! Whoooooo!!!
Rachelle Turner
Hey Team, are you guys waiting too do mystery after Tinley or before? Just wondering cause I want too make an order. 🙂
Wow!!! I think they ard so cool!! I have tons of respect for them...one bit my little pug on the moth when I livef in Maui!! My sweet boy almost died! He had a horrible reaction to the venom and his head swelled up, and his tounge and throat swelled so much it cut off his air supply....$5,600 later my boy survived, but it was touch and go for about 3 horiffic days, this was about 20 years ago!! I was obsessive about my boy goibg outside after that, especially at night when they would come out to hunt!! Impressive fellows!!
That tops my OH HELL NO list!!!
Love centipedes! Can’t wait for mine to reach this size
That is one large Scolopendra Centipede what species is it?
Kristen Larson
My mom got bit by one while mushroom hunting. Had some serious need to invest in Benadryl. Mom and I have kept our distance from them ever since. That beauty can be admired from afar.
How much do the baby's go for I would love one , but I love to watch them grow don't want to buy an adult one (at least not for my first one)
I have given the Fear Not team members a challenge. 💪 We are always looking for ways to better serve our customers and make spidering more fun! Each of them will be given $500 to spend at the NARBC Expo at Tinley Park in Chicago to invest in something new that will benefit our customers. 🎉🎉 I'm sure they would love your input! Give them some ideas about what you would like to see at Fear Not! 😊😊☺️
Maybe new housing products. New substrates on the market. New feeder options
T. Seladonia
Hire me please
Scorpions
Yes, additional inverts are always fun. Otherwise, feeder packs of asst feeders? Suspended arboreal enclosures?
Orchid mantis
Mantids and sicarius please
I live in Washington state I guess that leaves me out.
I’m in California I’m out too. But you guys rock
Maybe a few species of centipedes
More true spiders, centipedes, and maybe some hot scorpions.
Those African trapdoor spiders are super cool, scorpions,other inverts
Mantides
Amblypygids! It'd be awesome to see one molt throughout it's life.
Feedings, or education on different foods for tarantulas. The one I have currently only will eat crickets. I've had her 5 years. Not sure her age because she's a rescue. A male I had lived 5 years he ate mice mostly, sometimes crickets.
I’m happy with what ever but more enclosure ideas are always welcome.
Cyclocosmia sp. i e truncata if they are ever available
Mantids, beetles, non-feeder roach species, centipedes.
Other inverts like beetles 😁
Thanks, Fear Not Tarantulas!!!
More tarantula species
I definitely support the vote for Mantids!
Typhochlaena seladonia and Xenesthis Immanis
How to order and pick up at Tinley park
Enclosure ideas. Mini Feeder colonies. - like for those of us who have less spiders than fingers, but don’t want a gigantic tote’o’roaches
Myles has been having photo fun since he acquired some new things for his fancy camera!
Phormingochilus sp. rufus (Peach Earth Tiger)
Mmmm. That ones been on my wish list for awhile now.
That is a gorgeous species. Just added it to my want list. 😍
Cody McDowell
Can’t wait until mine gets that size.
Beautiful animal. Excellent pic.
Beautiful!! May have to add to my want list
We found one of our Cyriocosmus elegans (Trinidad Dwarf Tiger) females with spiderlings last week! We raised the parents up from tiny babies and it is such a joy to see our breeding project come to fruition! This was mostly Holly's project as this species introduced her to the wonderful world of Cyriocosmus!
Sweet!
They’re so cute with the heart.
nice job
Yay! Heartbutt babies!!!!
I think I need more of the cyriocosmus genus. They are adorable and ones. Holly is right. They are the best!
I have wanted one of these for my desk at work. Are they ok for someone with only a little T knowledge?
There is a new kid in town! The Tarantula Collective forum has mighty things planned! Fear Not is donating a newly available, super cool Aphonopelma mooreae ((Mexican Jade Fuego) spiderling! Just join The Tarantula Collective forum and as soon as membership reaches 1,000, they will randomly draw from those who comment on the contest post! Other prizes will also be awarded. So join the group, comment on the contest post as instructed ... and get others to join so they can reach the goal and they will do the drawing! Happy Spidering!🎉
Beautiful
INCREDIBLE!! I’m so excited for this

Social media is a double-edged sword. We are able to ask questions and share experiences, we can share feeding and breeding videos, keep up to date with the latest information, and share the joys and pitfalls of our hobby.
It can also be a vehicle for the spreading of inaccurate information, misconstrued facts, and give voice to those who stir negativity and drama to benefit themselves.
We encourage you to always go directly to the person to clear up anything that you hear from others that makes you question them. Whether it is a friend, family member, co-worker, or us, it is important to get the facts right before allowing a situation to ruin friendships. It is easy to fall into the pit of thinking badly about something before we know the facts.
So, before giving up a friendship, or being angry at a family member, co-worker … or a business, it is worth going the extra step and talking about it. Be kind, and be open to other perspectives. ☺️☺️
True true true
It truely is.
Truth
Very well said!
#absoluteTRUTH & #truthABSOLUTE
It’s unfortunate that lack of face to face interaction turns off social filters that keep the peace between humans. On social media, you will see people acting entirely different than they typically would.
buzzsprout.com
For many of us in the tarantula hobby, social media, particularly forums and Facebook groups, offer a "family" of people who share our rather odd interest in these eight-legged beauties. However, a fe...

Fear Not Tarantulas, Inc I was wondering if there was an easy way to message you, I sent you an email about buying some ts and I know you get a lot of emails but if there's another way I can get ahold of you please let me know!
This is kind of scary considering the climate changes we have going on. It makes me wonder what other changes we will see in our lifetime.
Aphonopelma mooreae (Mexican Jade Fuego). We have fallen in love with these spiderlings! An interesting thing we noticed as we unpacked the Mexican import is that they frequently release silk to lower themselves to the ground, like you would see a 'true' spider do. We have not seen that with other species. It is pretty cool!
they are so adorable!
Oh, Lordy I want one so badly!! I’m hoping people with a little deeper pockets than myself will hammer out any possible husbandry surprises before I commit.
Vanessa Sanchez theyre so cute
I love the Aphonopelmas. 😭 Wish I could afford these guys.
Ooooh
Hope Niece, I think I’m going to start a small collection of Tarantula’s. Starting out with the big black one and then thinking about some of the vibrantly colored ones! The best part of “spidering” is that they are pretty low maintenance and fun to just observe! I love the ones that tolerate careful handling tho thus the reason I’m starting out with the one I showed you the other day. Trying to convince Jeff that u need this hobby! Lol!
Lauren Brase
I'm interested in a sling if you have any available. What's your pricing for these beautiful T's??
Males of this species mature incredibly quickly. We have mature males from spiderlings that we got just 13 months ago. Harpactira cafreriana (Amber Baboon Tarantula)
They are beautiful!!!!! They almost look like an obt that got a sunburn lmao. 😛
Wow that's a beautiful T. How long do they last after maturing?
Jolan Azevedo check this one out
Ariana Ayala
Trish Napier my bday is coming up.. 😉
I dont need one... i dont need one... i don't need one....
Latrodectus geometricus (Brown Widow Spider) . We have mature females, possibly gravid available. 🕸️🕸️🕸️ fearnottarantulas.com/shop/
Brown widows are so much less aggressive than black. Do you deal in Red widows as well?
Aphonopelma mooreae (Mexican Jade Fuego) are now in stock. If you signed up for an email alert, you may not receive notification because there was such a large number of people the website tried to sent notifications to at once that it timed out.
Be one of the FIRST to have this beautiful species!
fearnottarantulas.com/product/aphonopelma-mooreae/
These are captive bred and legally imported!
I have never wanted to drop $300 on a spider until now. Man these are gorgeous!
Oh wow, gorgeous! They look like a Brachypelma and a GBB had a baby!
Beautiful!
Uggghhh y'all make it so hard not to spend money! I have my GBB sling, but my goodness does that spider look good too. I'm thinking of going for one of the dwarf species next though.
Wow.
Kind of looks like D. Diamantinensis
**drools in tarantula keeper**
Jesse Maryam Oukheira
Mikey Bark
how big are they?
Hope Niece
Can you please provide more information on the care and requirements for the Mexican Jade before I order? Type of set up needed for an adult also?
Can some one explain the difference between this and a GBB? I understand it lives longer but what sets it apart besides that.
Mystery Spider Reveal! Aphonopelma moderatum (Rio Grande Gold), Aphonopelma bicoloratum (Mexican Blood Leg), and Psalmopoeus victori . Thanks to everyone who participated - it is always quite fun.
Thank you for putting up such amazing spiders!
My heart broke a little last night when I watched the reveal video. I came so close to ordering but with all the ones I’ve been knowingly stocking up on, I talked myself out of it. Big mistake.
Damn I missed out 😂😂😂
Which one sold the most
So happy y'all are doing these spider mystery sales. I'm really enjoying them 😁
Can’t wait for the next one!
Oh these are all neat. Nice pics of them!
they are gorgeous!
Dang it! This is the last time I fall asleep on this. Two Aphonopelma species in one shot!? That blood leg would have been awesome to have!
Any chance for a second chance trio package price ? Lol
Mystery Spider Reveal for September! Thanks to everyone for participating. 😎😎😎😊😊youtube.com
3/3 guessed!
😭 still 108° here maybe I’ll get the November mysteries!! That victori surprised me.
😱😱
That Damian’s bicoloratum 😢😢😢
So glad I got Damian's.... REALLY happy with the A. bicoloratum can't wait till it grows up!
I waited too long & the deal sold out! Almost purchased Damian's! Such pretty T's!
Dennis Nathan
Adrian Colón
Thank you guys for another fantastic round of mystery spiders!
Ugh.... those are 2 Aphonopelma species i want so terribly bad!!!!!!!!
Fear Not Tarantulas, Inc, is there any estimate on when the October mysteries will be going up? I have that itch to start getting my birthday-month prizes.
I love this team.😍 I snuck a picture as they finish packing up quite a large number of orders. We are trying to get as much out as we can before the storm hits. 🌩⛈⛈
I think I can see my box! Hahaha
Good luck, guys
Thank you for shipping even with the storm coming. I can't wait until tomorrow morning! All of you are awesome!
Stay dry!
Now that that all is hopefully done, please stay safe, and stay dry! While all of us expecting packages greatly appreciate the hard work into the final hours before FedEx shuts down out there, now just be sure y'all stay safe!
Stay safe and dry!!
Praying for you all....pop smoke if able....make it safe....
Stay safe!
I hope you all stay safe!
I hope everyone stays safe there!
It takes a village. I wish I could do an apprenticeship.lol. I’d definitely boost my confidence when it comes to unpacking and rehousing.
We have a pretty big storm heading our way. Mandatory evacuations will start tomorrow for many areas near us. We will probably not have to leave though. 🏄♂️🏄♀️🚣♂️🚣♀️
Please be patient with us as we may not be able to get back with questions via email because of storm preparation. If possible, please wait until next week to email us with questions regarding future orders. 👍👍
We will be shipping tomorrow, but not Wednesday. All orders that came in starting today will be shipped next week. ✈️✈️✈️
Thank you Richard Stewart for shipping us a couple of generators! Ours would not start up and we could not find any in all of VA! 👀👀
Hopefully the storm will not be as bad as they anticipate, but it is better to be safe and prepared. Thanks again for your patience.😍😍
Good luck and be safe!

You'll regret not checking out these Mystery Spiders! These are amazing species. Time is running out! Order before midnight on the 12th. ⏳⏳
I'm so tempted to go for Myles'. I really wanted that Euathlus sp. San Felipe and the name/description is just too fitting. Plus I wanted to participate in one of these Mystery Spider events. This whole thing is just too tempting to resist!
People who don't order will be super sad.
Kaden Hartje I know you said it probably won’t happen buuuuuut I’m still tagging you 😂😘
Folks!! You still have time!! As per the above, you can order until midnight! You will be glad you did!
hey does the tinley code void if it makes it under $50?
I still get Holly's is sold out.
Anyone have any guesses after getting their spiders??
Any revelations already?
I'm guessing. But Holly's might of been Victori
I'm still clueless about mine other than what I was hoping for. It's pretty small and I can't really tell if there's distinguishing features. It's slightly yellowish for the most part except the black spot on it's abdomen. At the very least it doesn't look like the Neoholothele incei slings. Anybody else got a clue about Myles'?
We just posted the reveal!
Are there plans for an October mystery spider or 3?
Come see us at the NARBC expo in Tinley, IL October 13th and 14th! 🕷️🕷️ We will have over 100 species of tarantulas available as well as beautiful habitats. 😎 There are some fun things planned including contests and demonstrations! We look forward to seeing everyone.👍👍 👀👀
YESSSS i emailed you asking if I could order and then pick up! This answers my question AND I get a discount? WHOOOOOOOO!!!
Also Rollie is probably gonna wanna say hello and thank you for Thor. 🤪
Where can I go to pre order?
How many Psuedhapalopus sp. blue do you have in stock?
Lizz Williams road trip?
Jerry W Slater !!!!
Will there be any scorpions for sale?
We bred a Neoholothele incei (Trinidad Olive) "Gold" female to a "normal" male. You can see both "Gold" and "normal" spiderlings in the clutch. The female belongs to Myles Masterson.
Ephebopus cyanognathus (Blue Fang Tarantula) spiderlings with mom.
Dumb question but she won’t eat them?
Jerick Lescano Buitizon
It's really cool to see maternal spiders!
"Loved" little babies lol
We had a good pairing of the Theraphosa blondi (Goliath Birdeater) today. Holly Stoughton and I had minimal itching afterwards! 🤣
LOL , I remember those day. Good Luck !
Congrats
Come onnnnnn egg sack!
Congrats 😀 now to wait till they are up for sale
How much for a sling?

The September Mystery Spiders have been posted! The last day to order is Sep 12th! The team picked some amazing species! fearnottarantulas.com/product-category/mystery-spider/
Nicole Tam
Have to get back to y'all on this... there are so many non-mystery spiders I'd like to add to my small collection!
AAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!
Dustin, I have a good idea what the gold rush is
When do these ship?
Is there any indication on arboreal/terrestrial?
Yes! I've been waiting for a while for this!
I want Holly’s so bad because I think I know what it is and it’s one of my wished for.... but I promised mil no old worlds til the kids are bigger lok
Nooooo! Why do you do this??? I am not trying to have any more tarantulas, but I’m so tempted by Myles gold rush....
I think I know what Holly’s is and I want!!! 😍
Alexis 😮😮😮
Woop woop!!
All 3 for the 50$?
Vikki Marie gahhhh
I know they are a mystery. But I cant have OWs. Can i at least know if they are News, Olds, or a few of each. :/
Each Fear Not team member wrote a description for their choice. The descriptions are on the web site.
Myles’ Gold Rush. (New World) About 1/2″ While this species falls out of my usual keeping style, when the first one came into our possession I absolutely fell in love. Fortunately, the time came when we got our hands on a few slings so I scooped up a group of em. I’m really excited these are finally available in good numbers that people are going to have the opportunity to snag them! This bulky terrestrial spider comes from a pretty laid back genus, although you might get kicked. Whether you’re a beginner or a serious collector you won’t be disappointed in this rarely offered tarantula but hurry because they won’t last long!
Damian’s Allure (New World) about 1/2″ I would like you take a moment to sit back and remember a time that you felt at ease and did not know exactly why; a time that’ll always be remembered in slow motion because of the appreciation that you had for an unknown reason. Now let’s associate this moment into a particular species. From the hardiness throughout the entirety of it’s life, to the very passive and tranquil attitude, Damian’s Allure is too much to take in. Any name associated to this species is subpar to what she deserves. Fortunately, she is a slow growing species and she will give you all the time you need, because she needs time herself.
Holly’s Precious Mystery Spider. (Arboreal) About 1″ “ La preciosa tarántula del tesoro “ I was discovered in a unique biosphere where rainforests serenade my wild atmosphere. I reflect the night time sky possessing tones that will steal your eyes. My colors are darkest at night keeping me hidden and well out of sight . Only a few know where I am from but to the rest of the world the location remains unknown. To be an absolute treasure in anyone’s collection aided in the conservation efforts established for my protection. ¿Sabes lo que soy? If so , you won’t risk missing out on a precious treasure such as this.
Ahhhh....I was all set on Holly’s until I read the descriptions, now I’m torn between Holly and Myles! Lol I might just have to get both.
oh I'm doin this!
8/10 sure on Damian’s Allure
I think we all assumed Holly was Ow 😉

What sort of habitat is included?
This is a very important statement regarding the Poecilotheria that were recently added to the endangered species list and issue with some species endemic to Brazil.
We want to thank Joey Mugleston and the ATS for taking a leadership role in this and helping clarify some things.
Regarding the species endemic to Brazil, the best approach right now is to gear up and be armed with data showing all the species we can to be exempt. Any species that have been outside of Brazil before their law started, has been legally exported to anywhere in the world, or that can be shown to also be in neighboring areas will be exempt. We know this is the case with some species.
We are calling on the help of any researchers out there. Gathering this data will help us be ready to show reason for exemptions IF the need occurs. We will start a database with this information and will be glad to offer special discounts to those who can bring us credible data that shows species to be exempt. We can work as a team in a positive way to help ensure continued access to species.
have you considered emailing the authors of any range info or taxonomic descriptions that are available for the species in question? (i.e. tarantula systematics experts from brazil or those in other countries that research biodiversity in that area)
It is because we have such an incredible team that Fear Not thrives! When Isaac and I pulling in after over 8 hours of driving, we were greeted by the team who whisked the box away and will spend the evening housing and feeding the new spiderlings. 🕷️🕷️🕷️Such a blessing to be surrounded by others passionate about these creatures and who genuinely care about making our customers happy! 💓💓💓💓
You guys are amazing 😀 my 2 p metallicas I got for you guys are awesome. Gonna stick with you guys for all my spider needs. 🙂
Glad to see the import went well!! Now to wait for mine like a kid on Christmas Eve.
Isaac and I have been traveling to pick up the import. 🚙🚙🚙 As many know, Isaac is autistic and has a condition that makes his movements very slow. He loves to go for these drives and really enjoys staying in hotels! He is a real joy to be with. 😍😍😍😍 This time the crew at the port were not very busy and were asking some questions about the tarantulas they see us picking up every couple of months. So we opened up the box and right on top there was a very docile species. Most of them took a few steps back ... perhaps thinking that thousands of spiders might come bursting from the box! 🕷️🕷️🕷️🕷️🕷️🕷️🕷️🕷️🕷️🕷️🕷️🕷️ You can see one lady in the background of the first picture looking quite concerned. But look at her in the 2nd picture! That happened for most as ll of them. Once they saw this beautiful creature come out on my hand, there was a change ... hearts softened and we have several new keepers now! So the next time we come in to pick up spiders...🛫🛬🛫🛬🛫🛬🛫🛬🛫🛬 they won't look at me like I'm quite so crazy to be driving all that way to pick up a box of spiders! Thanks to the crew for being so great with Isaac and for wanting to learn about tarantulas! 😎😎😎 We will be posting sizes for the new species over the weekend ... so exciting!☺️☺️ By the way, this is the only legal way to bring in spiders from overseas. 😇😇😇
Tarantulas are one of Rollie’s (who also is autistic) “special interests”!!! Whooooo !!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I have heard from many people in the T community who have family members with autism. I love how Ts can brighten one's day. Almost feels like we need a Tarantulas for Autism non-profit! <3
I think it’s wonderful that Isaac loves traveling with you. I think it’s even more wonderful that you take the time to educate people who would otherwise be afraid of these incredible creatures. Changing hearts is one of the intrinsic rewards I love about keeping arachnids. Love FearNotTarantulas!
That's awesome. Being a great tarantula ambassador.
That is awesome 🙂
Way cool!
How did you think to start this? I see you traveling all the time.
What a fabulous story!!!! 😍🕷
That is great that you let them hold one. A lot of people don't get that opportunity.
I love this! I'm a nurse for special needs adults and think it's really cool that Isaac is a tarantula ambassador! Yay isaac!

Do you guys have any pink foot bird eaters?
Sonny Ryan
Wow beautiful looks like gold flecks.
They are beautiful and surprisingly outgoing.
Ryder Bowman
I need more tarantulas to drowned out the sadness. 4 male sexings in a row, it hurts.
Beautiful!
Placing order now! Lol
I love two toned tarantulas! This one looks like two different species photoshopped together. Cyriopagopus sp Bach Ma. fearnottarantulas.com
Well of COURSE it is two-toned. Any species with a name that sounds like an electronica DJ HAS to be different. 😀
Uneven tan. Haha
Pretty cool. Never seen one like that before
I want. What's it like to keep?
This is really cool.
Austin Hanvey
What size do they start getting coloration and the abdominal pattern?
Melissa...thinking of you
BEAUTIFUL!! 💖💖💖
Chaetopelma olivaceum (Middle East Gold) breeding. A pretty cool Egyptian tarantula.
I LOVE dwarf tarantulas right now!
Is there two there. Beautiful color of blue
Do you currently have slings?
Here in Egypt we have slings of this tarantula for 1$😂
Just a minor question: how big do these get exactly (male and female sizes)? I have a juvenile/subadult pair over here (from the same sac, but the male is one molt ahead of the female), and I'm just wondering when I can expect the male to mature, so I can put them together 🙂 I've read a success story with a female of about 2", and mine is already bigger than that, so she should be ready. It's just waiting for the male to mature 😛
How I love the furry 8 legged ones. ♡
Oh nice, what kinds of deals you running for the holiday?
Hello, I'm interred in some slings but can't seem to find a message tab on the page. Could be right in front of me lol Anyway can you send me a message when you get the chance. Thanks you
My greenbottle blue sling I ordered from you is awesome getting some good colour after last shed.
