Anderson


Rescue


Worf- This one is way to fast to try and take a pic with the lid off. He's already escaped once!


Charlie


Chewbecca- She very much has her own ideas of what should go where in HER home.

The last one doesn't look like a curly, lacks the golden shine to its carapace and the curly hairs that gave it the common name. Could just be the photo, if so I apologise but seems more like a lasiodora.

 

[Prudance]

I don't think she looks anything like an albopilosum either. The pic above and my avatar are true to what she looks like in real life. I am very interested in what others might think she is.

She's funny too. We did up her home all pretty with silk plants and she bulldozed the entire thing in a day, moved everything around, hid her water dish and filled her hide with substrate. Which is why we gave her the ping pong ball so she'd have something to do.

I'm very sure its a lasiodora, but I could be wrong.

 

[jon ross]

They are all aweome!! Gave her a pin pong ball! Love it!

They are beautiful spiders, lovely condition . I like Anderson best.

 

[Sabeth]

Lovely collection! Aren't they just so fun?

 

[Prudance]

Thanks everyone for looking.

Anderson is really cool. He's a little on the shy side. Spends a good amount of he time in that hide-a-spider stance but outside of his hide.

They are amazing pets to have. Someone once asked me what it's like to have a pet spider. I told her I get to stand in awe and watch the beautiful and graceful purpose of life. These are such amazing creatures.

So I've been off running an auction fundraiser for my kids school. Now that it is over (and my pockets are empty) I have some time to participate again. In the time I've been gone almost all of my T went through a molt cycle. Boy are they all oh so pretty.

Here's Anderson It's his first molt with us.

Biscuit, she's so shiny and the most easy going!

Worf, he got a new home after this pic was taken and then molted 4 weeks later. L. klugi

We also got an A. geniculata from our local pet store. This is a stubborn one so we named it Stub. Really didn't want to go in the new enclosure.

 

[Sabeth]

Your A. genic is my favorite!

Nice collection. Any photos of the Euathlus sp.?

 

[KayleesBellaDoma]

They are all just so cute!

 

[Christell Erasmus]

Hi there
what a nice collection you have there. They are beautiful!

 

[Prudance]

Thanks all.

@HungryGhost I have some old pics somewhere but with everyone having molted I want to get some new ones. The Euathlus are so tiny they are almost see through. They are maybe a half an inch which is a hair over a centimeter. They can be hard to get a decent pic of but I'll try.

Here's some truly baby tarantulas. Our Euathlus sp. red Link and Midna. They are my kids T's. We got them at 1/3" and are now 1/2" and it's been 7 months.

They're almost see through!
