They do grow quite fast... before you know it you have a beast on hand...



She is quite fast but only bites what she thinks is food (everything) and only stops eating to molt. (she's about 8 inches now.)

Mines still small, but growing fast.

I love this species. I've got about 80 of them right now and from the tiny little babies all the way up to my big female, they are eating machines.

I love this species, too. Amazing T... Grows so fast, eats like a little pig and stays almost always in the open :D

So, here she is... :}

I appreciate them!

I got my Geniculata earlier in the year from the guys over at E-Spiderworld but not online, at a Reptile Expo and guess what.....the next one is the Saturday after this one...Yay! Hopefully they will be attending this one also. I think I may just be able to cross off a few that are on my wishlist.

BTW, my Geniculata is still small but considering that it was a speck when I got it, it is doing pretty good.

p.s.
Whatever happened to Flannery anyway? She was the one I dealt with and she gave me some pretty good deals.

talk about huge butts...

I think Dafne has the biggest T butt to carapace ratio I have EVER seen! What a huge T butt!! I have wanted to get this species since the first day I saw it, but I didn't want to get a sling.... Now I am reconsidering, because this is such a hardy species, and fast growing to boot!
Maybe I ought to order one before it gets too cold! :D

This is not a species to be a bit concerned about as a sling. They are hardy, voracious eaters and they grow fairly rapidly. It is truly one of my all-around favorites.

=D =D =D

Hehe, yes, that's right. Her butt is really huge :D
But she is now before the molt. She refused eating yesterday, so I'm waiting...

And HerpInvertGirl... You should order one A. geniculata for yourself. You would love this T for sure :)
