Yes it was grooming its antennae, seemed to be happy for a moment or two to be out of the dusty siding, but it looked miserable in that jar, so I let it go. It was a monster. Here's some more pics; my kitten was quite interested. Took these right before I let it go.

Just grabbed that jar and scooped it in. It was kind of sluggish because a sudden cold snap hit today when a storm rolled in. I let it warm up and snapped some pictures but I ended up letting it go, I don't have the right set up for a pede.

Came home today and just as I was opening the door to my apartment this monstrosity crawled out of the siding. I've never seen a centipede this large before, so I obviously had to catch it. Not sure if I should keep it (never kept centipedes), sell it, let it go or what. It's quite impressive.

Transferred my girl today and got some lovely candid photos.

First T, watched it grow from a little sling to a 3 inch juvie, wanna see it finish. B. emelia.

Regardless, small time or not, coming to this thread is spider porn (literally) I envy you. ...190? No, probably not an even number, 185?

I'ma guess 150; btw, you are the spider master, sir. I bow to you.

I have to admit that I'm jealous Austin has such a place! Here in SA, our tarantula buying options are a bit limited. Congrats on your new spidey :)

My P. irminia sling molted last night.

My GBB molted, first time in my care.

There's a slug in the water dish... o_o

G. pulchripes sling. First molt in my care. Gained 1/2 inch.

Looks like I'm going on a field trip next weekend!

Like I said, previously, both are most likely A. hentzi. If not hentzi, then anax, but they look more like hentzi to me.

It's an A. hentzi. Also, where in SA are you?! Cuz I'm in NW SA and I CANNOT FIND THESE ANYWHERE!

You are taking pictures of the wrong part of the spider. The furrow is in the abdomen portion, which from these pictures looks to be completely shredded up. The male or female parts are located between the book lungs.

Best dorsal shot I can get currently

Based on what you said then, it's most likely a Striata. I'm ok with this, though I really did want a regalis. Luckily a local pet shop has some regalis so I might pick one up from them eventually.

Hello all, my Poecilotheria molted last night and it makes me realize it is not a P. regalis, as it was sold to me as. I now have no idea what it is, but based off of this helpful picture, I think I've narrowed it down to the following: - P. ornata - P. rufilata - P. striata I'm basing...

My Poecilotheria sp. molted last night. It was sold to me as a P. regalis but I'm starting to think that's not what this is; it's really dark and does not even have a hint of a white stripe on the ventral side; it is now 3"+
