Nice pictures! I can't wait till my versi starts showing some color change. Also I believe your T. blondi is actually a Lasiodora parahybana.

I was kinda thinking the same thing. The deal is I bought it off a person from CL who had in turn bought it from GBU Enterprises in Lodi ? California as a goliath bird eater. I also read that blondi slings and juvies can be brown to almost black, but I wouldn't really know. He was a little more brown before he molted and I have seen other pics of peoples "blondi" slings/ juvies and I've seen some that are brown and some that are really dark like an LP. I've owned several LP's and they look very similar to this guy, except the color of the hairs on the abdomen with this one aren't pink, but rather a blond color. I should post an ID thread to see what other people think.

Yeah posting a picture in the I'd thread wouldn't hurt. It just looks exactly like my brother's three juvie Lps. They are about 3.5"-4" and their setae hasn't gotten its full salmon color yet. If it is not an Lp, I would still say it is a Lasiodora sp.

DSCN2203.jpg P. cancerides - Just a quick pic during rehousing. It's hard to believe it only had five legs when I got it a few months ago.

My versi molted again the other day. She's getting so big! I love seeing her color transformation.

Finally!

DSCN2256.jpg
She started showing signs of premolt about a week ago and today I noticed she laid a web mat and brushed a bunch of urticating hairs to the back of her abdomen. Hopefully she molts tonight, it's been 9 months and day since she last molted (June 14, 2012).

Nice pictures!! Good looking versi, their color changes are compared to none!!



p.s. I didn't know feeding your P. cancerides jelly beans would help for quick regeneration. HaHa!
