[QUOTE="DeanoMolly, post: 46263, member: 3820"] Sorry to bother any of you guys again, but what a day it's been today, not shocking, neither was it a surprise!! A bit of an unexpected day, would be best word to use!! So I've had lector 3 days. What a dude he is, got home,into the bath and put him his new home, his abdomen was bald, he's obviously been kicking cos his abdomen was peach colored, but with the paint brush in hand he quiet happily let me coach him, with no fuss, and ever since its been great!!! Until today My wife's been sucked into the t world as well and after helping with lector, we agreed we wanted a slightly older brachypelma albiopolmus!! Low n behold we found a beautiful girl (apparently) she's between 6-7 cm body, looked healthy and seemed great!! Welcome in Betty. Well all the way home my wife keep pestering me, can she take the lead in Rehoming Her, today it's been very humide, we travelled a fair way, but we were happy. Into the bathroom we went, paintbrush in hand, well as my wife touched Betty with the brush she moved very slightly,so she went back again with the brush, only this time, she kind of give betty abit of alonger, helping hand, and without any sign BOOSH, Betty jumped round n literally mashed the paintbrush, I think her attack was what people describe as a death roll attack (I'm not 100% sure if that's its name) bless my missus, she gently put down the brush, n walked away, telling me to take over, I waited for her to climbed out herself and removed her tub! At the shop the told me she eat well was very docile n never kicked hair, NO she's just a pro wrestler!! But we all no that t's are capible of I guess, even at the time, I was trying to anticipate a bad reaction,just in case !!! I inspected her old substrate and found 4 webbed locust, so she hasn't eaten and she's done a fair bit of webbing in her travel container!! Could she be preparing for a moult???
