Not just a breeder, but a team that truly cares for their animals and has no problem answering even the simplest questions. The ordering experience was smooth and easy, and they were patient with my countless questions. I appreciate them greatly and Marshall Arachnids will be the go-to suggestion for any one I know looking to get into tarantulas.
Tiny sling arrived safe and on time. She was well packaged and active/healthy upon arrival.
Received our little guy a few days ago and he was super active out of the gate. Very confident and brave, can't wait to watch him grow!
This was one of the three tarantulas that I purchased from Marshall Arachnids as a first time purchase. It arrived on time and very well packaged. This T was much bigger than I had expected and quite active. It's eaten and is doing very well. I'll definitely be purchasing from Marshall again!
Almost everything was perfect. The spood arrived safely and was packaged perfectly. My only complaint lies with the optional 40 dram enclosure, for the simple fact that it’s a top opening enclosure and Avicularias are arboreal. Fortunately I had an extra enclosure I was able to move it to to make it easier to feed it without disturbing the sling. Other than that, I would absolutely recommend Marshall Arachnids
Let customers speak for us
from 405 reviewsMy spider arrived safely and in great condition. He was well packaged and clearly healthy on arrival. He’s been doing really well since settling into his enclosure. Thank you for the great service and care you put into shipping him!
My little OBT, Officer Cupcake, is a healthy and gorgeous sling, as all my Marshal Arachnids slings are. Well-started, eating, webbing, and reacting to my presence as if I am a walking hurricane, as any self-respecting OBT should. So fun to watch him move about and see how his webbing changes each day. I love his cute little tarantula face. Thanks for another great one, Jess and Ryan!
Spider arrived in perfect health with great color. Arrived safely and with great packaging. Will order again. Marshall arachnids was easy to communicate with and friendly.
Communication was amazing and great care taken to make sure we had good shipping weather. Strawberry Shortcake showed up alive, happy and warm.
Absolutely please with my sling
Had an awesome purchase experience with Marshall Arachnids. They were very informative with weather delays and very resposive to emails. My Tarantulas were delivered when the weather was good and came packaged professionally and alive and very healthy. You can yell they take care of their Tarantulas in house. My two slings ate immediately upon rehousing and began webbing their enclosures right after. I highly recommend Marshall Arachnids. I would give 10 stars if I could.

There was a weather delay. Company was perfect about communicating it with us. One of the best packaging I’ve ever seen for tarantulas you can tell they give a shit. Ordered for my son’s birthday an now his younger brother wants one too. My wife hates them but my kids go nuts for them definitely will be ordering again
Great communication and all of them arrived safe! 12 days later and they are all eating and settling in
Thank you guys so much for my new Spider! You guys updated me weekly on weather conditions and when it was finally safe to ship! You guys packed it very nicely and I was very impressed with how professional everything looked when unboxing it! And also purple is my favorite color haha. The spider was very calm when I opened it up and it actually hopped into the enclosure I had prepared for it from the thick paper towel it was wrapped in 😊… you guys deserve higher than a 5 star rating seriously! Very professional business and I am beyond impressed and satisfied ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This beautiful sling came to me with a healthy abdomen size and a spunky personality. We are already doing shenanigans together. He loves his cork hide and started webbing it up and digging a bit on his first night with me, and I love seeing what he's done each day. Happy to have my 2nd H. pulchripes, he did not disappoint! The handling was incidental, do not recommend with this species, but I got such a great shot of how gorgeous he is. Definitely shenanigans happening around here. :)
This little booger is adorable.Eating good moving good everything good
It was a good buy I just couldn’t pick it up that’s my fault. Thank you
Appreciate the consideration they have for these animals to ensure they arrive alive & safe during the colder seasons. The constant communication with Jess & extremely accessible if I had any questions. My C. Versicolor arrive yesterday, took a cricket & so far so good! Thank you all so much!
Thanks so much they are doing so well think they are going to molt soon
