Premolt:
This tarantula is the one that got me into the hobby. I bought him from a friend at about 0.75 around 5 years ago iirc. I was waiting for this last molt for well over a year and I'm a little disappointed. He was my first T so it would have been wonderful if he turned out female and I could keep him "forever." Sadly for Mr. Chaco, he came out bearing hooks on his latest (and I suppose last) molt.
So... where to go from here? I'm treading into territory I didn't see myself going into for quite a bit longer. If I can't keep him "forever" I'd like to try to get him a mate (or two). I found a local that has some (a reputable vendor on this forum whom all my t's have come from). Anything I should look for? Any advice/web pages you can give me on breeding? I will check the breeding reports subsection as a starter. I know a little bit about breeding already but not a whole lot.
Pictures will come in a bit. I shot quite a few in raw.
