I'm going with female.

He looks more like a gangling teenager instead of an old man. Pulchras are on my ownership list...so dapper.

It looks like he/she wants to give me a hi four.

So pretty! Either she's fending you off or she expects you to feed her...lol. I really like the way the padded feet look.

Damn, I'm one week away from closing on a new home...right now I simply do not have the space to pick those up...but I would if I could! ...Do you think he will still have some by the end of this week?

Uhh... P. miranda or P. vittata or P. regail ...the dull color of this picture makes it hard for me to tell. One of those three, though.

One thing I'd also suggest is using these forums to look up "bad molt" problems. THESE are the problems that you should watch out for. Most of the time as long as environmental essentials are met there are no issues...but its always good to be prepared. The search can also help you identify how...

Meanwhile my 1 year old rosea is small, stubborn to eat,and insists on sandboxing her water dish.

Just my two cents here...I would say that A LOT of the fun is watching your T's grow from a little speck of attitude into a much larger specimen.

He/She was making a web on my truck today so I had to gingerly move them. Their response was to pretend to be a piece of debris...

Gorgeous lady you have there.

While some gardeners are leery of spiders I would imagine you could sell a bundle of babies to someone with an insect problem. Just a thought...

I do not know if this applies to T's but I figured another suggestion/idea wouldnt hurt (since this is a baffling mystery still at large). Let's say that the T was captured in the wild. Some animals (of typically much higher intelligence) exhibit depressive behaviors when they are removed from...

I'm from Boise, Idaho...so those colors match up to Boise State's team palette too. :)

I personally would tape a fine mesh over that corner and watch for spiderlings to emerge. When they do I would then take the cage outside, lift the mesh, and let it sit outside in the shade somewhere for a couple days. No harm, no foul.

Something else to keep in mind is that T's react to stressful environments in different ways. The G. pul might be ill-tempered because of too much direct light or perhaps too many loud noises/thuds. Does she/he kick hairs and/or dart around the cage much? ...yeah, a little more description would...
