I rehoused 7 today and was surprised how easily it went. No attempted escapes and the worst part was finding a couple that were so webbed into their homes.

First up was the biggest of the bunch, my Chilobrachys huahini, Chiang Mai who is still refusing to come out of the catch cup. Now in a 12x10x10" terrarium.

Next came the lunatic Psalmopoeus pulcher, Pacora, who took some catching but no escape attempt. I moved it into an 8x8x12" terrarium.

Maasai, the Pterinochilus murinus Tete, was sooo easy, just strolled from its old home into its new 3" cube

Sahara, the Stromatopelma calceatum came next. This was one that I had a job finding in all the web but once spotted was an easy rehouse.

The next 3 were all moved to 11”L x 6.5”W x 4”H acrylic containers.

Chilobrachys sp. Blue Vietnam, Han

Thrigmopoeus insignis, Sirsi. This one is known as the Karwar Large Burrowing Spider and it certainly lives up to its name.

Phlogiellus sp. Khao sok, Paed. This is the shyest of my 3 Khao sok girls and I only just grabbed a pic before she vanished.

Enn how is the S cal? Reclusive, hides a lot? Ive always liked them too. Some say theyre almost aggressive, some say meek, how's your's? And your first one as well, how was he?

As slings they tend to hide a fair amount although my 1st one spent more time in full view as he grew bigger. I never had any sign of aggression from him but he was fast to hide when he was disturbed.
