Thanks dude! Yours is definitely a green girl, love the new shots. "Green island variant?" Thats a new one to me....


Rehoused a couple of Ts, that...was...exhausting.... They just ran and ran and ran.

Tiska

S. arndsti (she's so exhausted, I don't have the heart to try to get any better shots of her :/

 

[syndicate]

That truculentus is smoking!!

 

[jbm150]

Thanks chris, that's your girl. She was a freebie you gave me and introduced me to such a great species. People just don't know!

 

[advan]

Nice spiders Jeff!

 

[jbm150]

Thanks chad

New girl, all I can say is :drool:

She's a haplo all right, 3 inches of bitey fury

 

[Shell]

Nice Haplo, Jeff! Very pretty.

 

[matt82]

^^ Very nice T indeed :clap: What is the exact species of Haplopelma?

 

[jbm150]

Thank ya, she's a cutie. I went to order some heat packs, would have had to pay 10 in shipping so I said what the hell, if I'm gonna spend that much for shipping, may as well go all the way. I'm not sure that's really good logic but hey, made sense to me

 

[Shell]

Sounds like my kinda logic.

 

[Hendersoniana]

ooh the new haplo is to die for! Just hope she appears at the entrance of her burrow every night .

 

[jbm150]

Haha thanks Hendersoniana, me too

Here she is chowing on some crickety goodness

Pasha out chillin'. I'm surprised how built she is, stockier than my crassipes....though my camera doesn't quite capture it :/

Jeff, that emilia is stunning! I may just have to come visit and take her home with me.

 

[jbm150]

Haha yeah, she is a pretty girl. I dunno about that, I'm not sure any of my Ts are clamoring for a trip to the great white north.... South Florida, where it is just soooo cozy warm and the crickets flow like wine

 

[matt82]

Nice B. emilia there mate, really fast becoming my favourite Brachy, very well captured too, nice shot! Are the 1st & 2nd legs on the left side in the regeneration process? And if so, is that the result after one molt? Fascinating process

 

[jbm150]

Thanks matt, I quite agree, I love the looks of B. emilia. And yes, when I first got her, I accidentally pinched her two front left legs in her shipping container. She molted shortly thereafter and the two legs were stuck in the molt so she shed them. She molted again relatively quickly and had two new gangly legs. It seems as though she put all her food into the creation of the new legs and sped up the molt cycle so she wasn't without for very long. I figure she'll molt again sometime midyear and the two will be indistinguishable from the rest. Really very cool!
