Genus Avicularia

[edesign]

Not sure what happened to my original thread i posted last night...it is nowhere to be seen :(

anyway, i took a bunch of pictures while i fed my T's and the following pic of one of my A. huriana's turned out to be one of my better pictures and had to post it here. The first pic is ok, it shows off the purple on the abdomen i had never noticed before...is that normal or perhaps due to the flash?

[mybabyhasfangs]

Nifty picture!!! I really like it! Very good detail.

I was telling Jason last night, the best way to inspect your spiders is to take a picture and inlarge it...LOL. You get great detail.

Cool pic!

[moricollins]

Nice shots Josh, can't wait till my huriana's get that big :)

[xgrafcorex]

very nice photo. i was going to order a huriana but they were all out by the time i made up my mind what else to get with it heh. what camera/lens are you using???

[shogun804]

i would have to agree with you here, this is also one of my favorite T's to keep, my female actually just molted 5 days ago, they are stunning T's. yours is very nice looking

[edesign]

very nice photo. i was going to order a huriana but they were all out by the time i made up my mind what else to get with it heh. what camera/lens are you using???

thanks for the compliments everyone :) I was surprised it was that clear as I don't have a tripod and was pretty close-up picture...I don't have the steadiest hands usually.

I am using my gf's Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ3 with the macro lens...i think it's a 4 megapixel.

[Joe1968]

she's gorgeous, I've always wanted a huriana.

[jw73]

Have you any pics when your huriana has been growing up ? Post it if you be so kind.

[Crimsonpanther]

Wow shes sexy lookin !! No really though shes a beaut !!
I always wanted one of those Avic's ! Great photos man !! :clap: :drool:

[Gesticulator]

a real beautiful...on my "next avicularia" list! Yes the flash does accentuate the hue!

[Immortal_sin]

holy crap! nice pic!
My 2.1 megapixel cam won't take pics that nice, and mine are smaller than yours. I think I don't feed mine as much ;)

[edesign]

Have you any pics when your huriana has been growing up ? Post it if you be so kind.

it's only molted once since it has been in my care and the previous pics I have are not the greatest. Have you checked the Avicularia species picture thread? There's a few pictures of this species in it as well...kind of long but the pictures are great and of ALL KINDS of Avics:)

Gesticulator, thanks for confirming my suspicions of the flash

Holley, you must be starving yours ;) I feed this one about once every week and a half...gets two crickets, the other one I got from you seems to be on the slower side and to be honest, i am kind of worried about it. After it molted it grew about the same amount as this one pictured but is a lil skinnier and won't eat nearly as much...MAYBE half what this one will. I kept thinking it was in premolt but it was much to soon for that to be. Hopefully it will be ok after the next molt and start eating like this one.

[ChrisNCT]

not to hijack yer thread but here's my female:

oh, then you just have a nice cam LOL. Mine are fed once a week on either a small cricket, or a lobster roach juvie. They are probably close to 1.75" or so, maybe a bit larger....
How bout yours? Some of mine are bigger eaters than others too, hopefully your other one is ok...

[edesign]

ya, they're about the same size...

chris, hijack away :) nice pics...how long have you had that one?

[ChrisNCT]

I got it about 2 months ago from a friend. It molted about 3 weeks ago when I took these pics. Sexed female about 4 1/2".

So that was Botar by 8's at the Tinley show? I was there and saw that versicolor. That guy was cool. I got my skeleton (E. murinis I believe) from him. I can't wait for more shows to come to the Chicago area! Much love for the avic's. I'm getting a versicolor as soon as I can.


Um we have the twice-monthly Streamwood ILL show....thats 24x more often than Tinley ;) Theraphosid Breeding project is Always there....

And on minatrix size, I have many and NONE are 4" legspan, even with Male Measurement Syndrome I couldnt call one that big ;)
3"...3.25"....
tONY

[Raqua]

GoTerps: I've read somewhere that azuraklaasi is supposed to have some orange setae on leg IV apart from toes ... Does your have anything like that? I would love to see pic of that.

[GoTerps]

GoTerps: I've read somewhere that azuraklaasi is supposed to have some orange setae on leg IV apart from toes ... Does your have anything like that? I would love to see pic of that.

Not that I can tell, but this is a young, growing specimen. I don't see red or orange setae anywhere on this specimen.

Is this in the original ""description"" (if that's what you want to call it!!) by Tesmoingt? Just curious. Whether a valid species, or a regional form, they really are gorgeous.

This spider was imported as a sling from Germany.

Talking about "colored setae" on Avicularia is sure to give one a headache! LOL

Interestingly, another specimen I have, from the same eggsac, is a little larger than this one and still has some redish setae on the abdomen and a little on leg IV... I'll work on taking some pics of that one as well.

Woe that's some fantastic Avic you've got there! I too love Avic's i have a Avic-versicolor and a Geroldi. Not big like your though! I can't wait for them to grow to adults!.

[Crimsonpanther]

ALL OF THESE AVIC'S AND SOOO LITTLE MONEY !!!!:drool:
I want them all...right now im currently breeding my male with wolfys female !! I getting the versicolor really soon i cannot wait...untill then im gonna :drool: over these pics

[Ronj]

This is a great T!

[CedrikG]

avic avic ? im not too familiar with avic genus

very cute and fat huh :wicked:

[xgrafcorex]

that or metallica. they're similar looking, metallica just looks fuzzier to me pretty much.

[Socrates]

Whoa that is one chubby A. avicularia! :eek: Did she mate recently? Do you know whether she is WC (wild caught) or CB (captive bred)?

Awesome addition! I love mine to pieces. Good luck with her - she may even surprise you with an eggsac one of these days. I've honestly never seen one that .... ahem... B I G. {D

[P. Novak]

Avicularia is my favorite arboreal type of T!!!! i just love there fuzzy looks!! :)
IM sending my mature male off too surena(another member on the boards) for a loan. and hopefully and eggsac will be produced!

[Ronj]

She is only about 14 to 16 months old and is really healty. I would love to mate her as she has been so sweet. She got a new home over the weekend and loves her new digs. Since bringing her home last year she has had an empty toilet paper role hung by two sided tape as a home. She really has outgrown this setup so a larger cardboard roll is now in her new home (not in picture). Thanks for the comments.

[P. Novak]

ugh your lucky i really want one of the terrariums!! nice decor whered you get the fake plants, those would go really well with one of my setups. haha very niceee!!!

[CedrikG]

they were cute in group , they're always like that! :)

[Crimsonpanther]

Very nice A.Avic , Plump i might add !

I love those terrariums , there great...i have 3 my self and there great for the display T's ! :clap:

[Mattyb]

Wow you always amaze me with your pics. I plan on breeding my A.avic pair next week.

-Matty

[PinkLady]

Awwww they are so cute!!!! We are really hoping our female drops a sac. One question I have though....Do they get really active before they get ready to do this? Ours is moving around a lot lately and she normally doesn't.

[cloud711]

nice avics. how big are they?:?

[CedrikG]

nice avics. how big are they?:?

about 1/2 inch to 3/4 inch

[Denisthemenace]

[Snipes]

awww, i hope i get some from Varden's female. My fingers are crossed.

just love this genus, especially purpurea. speaking of that, Philth, any new arrivals?

[brigebane]

I don't know, all these flashy spiders and that A. geroldi has my eye. Very sculpted, elegant looking spider.

[hurley0816]

wow how beautiful. I want some. any speacial housing needs for versicolor and purpurea?

Freshly molted female Avicularia azuraklaasi

Are those newer to the hobby? I don't ever recall seeing one.

[GoTerps]

Are those newer to the hobby? I don't ever recall seeing one.

They're not new to the hobby... but likely not a unique species (like quite a few Avicularia).

Probably a regional variant of the avicularia/metallica complex... but a REALLY gorgeous spider regardless!

Here is my mystery girl, she is over 6 inches and some kind of green olive in color with yellowish hairs.
Anybody have an idea / ID ?

[Scorpendra]

i'd guess A. Juruensis.

[Bearskin10]

Or an aurantiaca maybe...

[DragonMaiden]

shes beautiful! what ever she is. kinda looks like my boots!

[xgrafcorex]

this is the first time ive seen my a avic out of its tube web since its last molt..now a tiny bit over 4" in leg span. haven't gotten the best look with my eyes yet, but the pictures seem to show that a lot of the blue on the legs has disappeared.

[Lasiodora]

A beautiful pair.

[Varden]

Here's a picture of one of my Avics. Thanks to Snipes, we're looking forward to hopefully getting an eggsac soon! Woo hoo!

[Martin H.]

i'd guess A. Juruensis.
why or what does you make think it's A. juruensis?

[Scorpendra]

okay, so i'm not good at IDing Ts. do i need a "but don't take my word for it" tag on all my posts?

[Snipes]

That gravid girl looks pretty nice. My fingers are crossed for a healthy sac. Here is my juvie A. versicolor http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y31/Snipes05/Tarantulas/Kristin%20the%20female%20A%20versicolor/geetjrtf.jpg

REMINDS ME OF THAT SCENE IN ALIENS WHEN THEYRE ALL CRAWLING BETWEEN THE CEILING

[billopelma]

Avicularia sp. 'biceurianasistiaca' :? ~3.5". It's actually much more brown toned than blue in 'normal' light.

http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d179/wcorey/aviculariasp0112.jpg

This one has been a good lesson for me in photo IDing, I see four different pic's of other similar T's, and come to four different conclusions. Then it molts again and I can start all over...

in case it's really THAT bad, it's A. Purpurea

[Lasiodora]

Here's a picture of the male. He built a home in a corkbark hollow under the airplant. He is sitting above it (you can see webbing underneath him). All the webbing to the right of him is from the females home. He is drinking water from the airplant in the second pic.
Enjoy,
Mike

[MRL]

Can someone tell me if this Purpurea is in premolt? Looks very dark, black even without direct lighting and very clumbsy climbing anything! I suppose I'll know in a few days if it feeds or not however someone might be able to determine this through the picture.

Here's a quick pic I took after it pooped on me and jumped from my hand onto my bathroom counter, that's the first time it jumped on me, luckly the second time was in her enclosure. :)

The second pic is Avicularia aurantiaca, or yellow-banded pink toe.

[LHP]

Avicularia avicularia (freshly molted female)... outside last summer. This pic was taken shortly before she shot poo at the camera and started to leap from plant to plant in my garden. No more outdoor photo shoots for her! Second pic is her munching on a superworm. Fuzzyish pic but I like the kind of sidways threat posture shes flashing.

How big is she ?
Very beautiful spider.
I didn't measure her actually but she was touching 5" before her molt and didn't appear to grow any. She's ready for some loving. :D

[xanadu1015]

How much do purpurea's usually go for?

[MRL]

Slings anywhere from 50-70. Started I've only seen two people offer them and at 70-100. The person offering them at 70 also sold slings for 30. I assume he bred them.

I think it looks like it could in fact be a bicegoi or at least what I have seen of them? Looks like mine that I bought a few years back as a small sling. I don't think it looks anything like an aurantiaca like it was said to be in that thread but it could also be a huriana like you said? AVIC???? :wall: :wall: :wall:

Soooo happy with them, although one appears to have a bent leg (you can't really see it on those pics) would that correct itself at the next molt?
Thanks

[ShadowBlade]

Yes, T's regenerate/fix appendages quite well from molts. A twisted leg is an easy fix. Especially for a sling!

[MrWhite]

Thanks, that's good to hear. Also that ones pedipalps are missing the tips (or they are crushed a bit) hope this doesn't affect it too much!

[TarantulaLV]

I bought her as a "pink-toed"-- imagine that!! I thought she might be huriana but it has been suggested that she is probably aurantiaca---Whatever!! :mad: She sure is purdy though!! All big and fuzzy. 6" now normal stance from front legs to rear. She grew just over half an inch from the last molt. Leg regeneration in progress as well. Enjoy!! I will post another pic from this thread as being the closest to her appearance I've ever seen. Oh and great pics to all of you avic lovers out there!!:worship:

Avicularia sp. 'biceurianasistiaca' :? ~3.5". It's actually much more brown toned than blue in 'normal' light.

This one has been a good lesson for me in photo IDing, I see four different pic's of other similar T's, and come to four different conclusions. Then it molts again and I can start all over...

just bought it 2 weeks ago, it moulted last week, hasn't eaten since i've had it. she was a bit fatter than the other ones but she was the only one that hadn't moulted so i bought her in hopes she was female.

[Widowman10]

is there any limit to how big (wide or tall) a pinktoe's enclosure should be? i know for terrestrials, its about 3x body or leg length.

[Lorgakor]

Wow, she's very cool looking Mori, looks quite different from before she moulted. And big!:)
