lets go with some Poecilotheria

formosa



ornata


pederseni


regalis
Juvenile





Sling



rufilata




PS: the MAIN reason why I handle my ts when rehousing / photo session if for a pretty important thing for me. Some time ago I realised I was'nt comfortable with having a tarantula on me, a murinus runned on my hand and I shaked it to remove it "reflex" . this day I decided I had to fix that. I started with small and docile species , and then I was getting little bigger one, a bit more nervous. now I can handle a 4 inch specimen of any species without problem . this is pretty important Imo as I begin to have a collection , that will happen one day and I dont want to have the stupid reflex to shake my hand or even worst squish it. Now everything is under control and im pretty happy of it.

i'Ve to admit theres a part of fun to

Nice pix! :cool:

Do you think slings / juveniles tolerate you more for handling compared to adults?

She's missing a leg :( I dont even know why!

a real nightmare for cricket, this one got both leg's cutted


already got an attitude, knocking on the container wall's when I move around quietly!

a cricket, still alive, but surrounded and stuck in web! she left it alone and came back a bit later, it was death orparalysed from the venom I guess, I was fascinated to watch that


murinus

heres a pic of her drinking, also observe the environment

here she is, a bit later :) webbed til the top of the container with tunel
