Two tarantulas arrived, and arrived well.
  • Brachypelma emilia
  • Ephebopus cyanognathus
They are just so small, and I love the way they are.

Homoeomma chilense decided to molt, but with a little twist.

It’s still on it’s way to get it’s new body out of the old self.

But what can I say, it knows exactly what it’s doing, and I support it 100%.

Resepct.

Today, I decided to give 0.1 Psalmopoeus irminia a bit more room to be around and more. With much of extra room, feeding process will probably be trickier than before.

0.0.1 Megaphobema robustum, very recently molted on 04/23/2024, was rehoused into much larger with much depth to burrow if it’s willing.

I find it this species, well at least the one I am keeping, really loves to dig, and to burrow.

In this enclosure, it will probably stay for another three or molts.

I acquired 0.1.0 Pamphobeteus chinche on 08/17/2023. I did not know when it was it’s last molt, but it never once refused to eat so far.

Today, I saw this, and got very excited.

While I was at work, it put down web mats, and my good guess would be, it’s about time for it to molt finally.

Hopefully within a couple of days. I can’t wait to see it molt successfully, get harden, and to eat again.

Here it is, in about five hours later.
