Heh, I wonder...
This is her second molt with me since I received her from you. She's gorgeous. I couldn't be happier with her.

Thanks Laura! My Brachypelmas are awesome pet rocks. Lucy though is typically a very aggressive eater. I swear she's practically caught the cricket in mid air before. She's always ready to eat.

My emilias and smithis would too but they can't be bothered, honestly there laziness is a joke. I have to more or less bowl crickets at there fangs or they would starve cos they are far too idle to chase anything.

I've not had that problem with Brachypelma. They usually are pretty good eaters for me. My smithi is the least predictable, but I think it is because she ALWAYS has to stalk the cricket. The others practically jump up screaming "MINEMINEMINE!!!!" when I go to drop the crickets in.

I have cut down the food for a lot of my 8 legged dumplings. I have a few skinny newly moulted but some of the others need to go on a treadmill or something

I finally got my B.Emilia sling yesterday...it's not even 0.5" yet but it eats like a weightlifter...can't wait for it to grow up.
O yes,,,how does the numbering system work again? Is a 0.1.0 B.Boehmei saying one has ONE female B.boehmei?

I just got my first Brachypelma a week ago. Excited to see the pretty red knee molted today when I was at work. I couldn't determine sex from the molt, it was in rough shape. Seems to be quite active so far. Hope it doesn't turn into a pet rock on me.

O that is a beautiful T. Bad luck, you'll have to wait till its next molt...which might take some time. My 0.0.1 B.Smithi is still small (2.25") and hardly showing any colours yet. I also have to wait a couple of molts so that I can sex it.

I've always wanted a b smithi but they weren't around and some were quite costly. Found it for 60 dollars, it's probably about 3 inches now. I love it
