Ive been building my collection back for 2 months. So it was dead at work, and was facebook surfing looking around and low and behold a guy on the worldwide tarantula owners was giving away his tarantulas in houston (i live in nearby area)! The post was about an hour old and had a bunch of comments already so I didnt get to excited cause it was a first come first serve situation and didnt get off work for about two hours and it was an hour drive.
My wife decided to be amazing and got there first! We expected one or 2 but low and behold sitting out in front of this nice house were 12 kritter keepers of various sizes and 2 acrylic tanks all unlabeled! The only species that my wife was familiar enough with was M. balfouri and G. pulchra and pulchripes. Needless to say I am beyond excited, just off the species that i was familiar enough to identify on my own (my wife had a funny experience with her second OBT that was shocking). I am completely comfortable with my diagnoses of G. pulchra and pulchripes, the M. balfouri’s look like M. balfouri slings and are in beanie baby container communally, the obt is etched in my mind because of the shock of all these slow moving nw worlds and baam orange bitey thing in a cave... the GBB is beautifully colored. The other ones im not to sure on.
