Picking up a 1.25" C cyaneobubescens sling tomorrow evening, my first GBB, been wanting one for a while now, this will take me up to a total of 9 T's, room for 1 more maybe...

I wholeheartedly agree, you won't regret getting a GBB! I got mine a week ago, and it's beautiful! Hoping it's a female...if not, i'll have to get another, which wouldn't be a bad thing.

famous last words, 1 more maybe...

Congrats on a GBB, I really like mine, its closer to 1 inch. He has done a lot of webbing in the 1 - 2 weeks i've had it. My OBT webs a lot too.



LOL this turned into a my GBB is awesome thread.

Love mine, it's a nice relaxed spiderling that's easy to handle and absolutely loses its mind when you drop in a cricket :)

+1 to that.

My two Greenbottles are about 2.5" with no accurate clue, as they're some of my speediest and most difficult if I ever have to do transfers or maintenance, hoping that they might become manageable once they get older. I suspect another molt is coming up..

Definitely heavy webbers and I adore the intricate tunnels that mine have formed. Definitely not regrettable decision.
Now we'll just have to see what your next one ends up being, eh?

I just got my first GBB sat. I am so excited about watching it grow up. She ate saturday when I bought her, but refused her cricket yesterday. Don't know if she is going into pre molt or just getting use to her new place.

Yeah, yeah, sure.... lol :D
I know what you are saying Lee... 10 seems like a nice round number but so many different T's I seem to have a soft spot for them all lol

Collected last night the "sling" turned out to be nearer a Juvi at around 1.75" so very pleased, even came ready set up in a little plastic box with substrate, hide, bowl and a few plastic leaves and sticks, all webbed up and just fed having last shed around two weeks ago. Lovely looking little T, the seller who is a member of the BTS had 2 GBB's of same size so was letting one go to get another species. Think I got a bargain as I was going to order a small sling from The Spider Shop which including shipping would have cost me more! Will post pic up as soon as I've found my data lead to connect my camera to PC

Just joined the "club" last week. Bought two slings. Not quite 1/2". Not a lot of webbing as of yet, just fed each a small mealworm night before last and it was great watching them wrestle with their dinner. Can't wait for them to get a little bigger. I overfeed all my T's so I figure in about three to four months I'll have some pretty decent size on them. So much fun.
