This weekend, Adversary and I went on a bit of a roadtrip!

On Saturday, we went down to Redondo Beach to see Paul Becker's (PetCenterUsa) set up and to pick up some Ts. It was my first time going that far south in California.. I will never adjust to huge cities :eek: but, I survived the trip and had a great time! Paul is awesome, so friendly and helpful!

Here are my new additions... I passed on a few species that I wish I hadn't, but I will survived (until I get them :D lol)






And I also got another A. avic sling, but I couldn't remember her name... which frustrated me into not saving her pictures at that moment LOL

I'll let Adversary post his :D

I just got 7 new additions to my spider family.
So, here they are in no particular order.









Here is Teal holding her.



Farah


Giselle


Penelope


I figured that if I name them all female names, then they have a better chance of being female, lol. {D

How exciting! They are all so beautiful! I wish I could transport myself (Jetson's style) to California...just even for one day, the sun, warmth, and such wonderful T possibilities! :worship:

Thanks yall!

TheTsupreme - I gave her a basic set up... a few inches of substrate, with a pre-started little burrow and some moss cover.
In the deli dish Paul had her in, she had made a series of tunnels and web tunnels.

Better watch out Jason, Paul can dish up a MEAN Psalmo, LOL!!!!!

Awesome additions Jairi!!!! Keep at the Avics....you're going to succeed sooner or later.

@ Adversary: I quit giving my T's female names when 2 unexpectedly turned out male, LOL. You do have a nice selection, though.....hope they all turn out girls for you.

I e-mailed Paul and I am picking up a C. darlingi and an E. cyanognathus this Saturday!

Thanks Jairi, you gave me the extra little push I needed by showing me the picture of the darlingi. He has a name already...Shaka Zulu :D

Thanks Steve!
And Adversary decided that a few of the names can be turned to boy names if needed (Simone to Simon, and Olivia to Oliver LOL)

Abby - You're lucky I am busy on Saturday, or else I'd ask to go with ya! lol There are a few Ts I passed on, that I am thinking I need to grab!

Aww, well, let me know next time you go :)
I will just go with you as moral support, I won't buy anything.
I would probably just take $100 with me in case we want to buy coffee {D
