Very cute

What is the black tube in the new set ups? I like it. Will never mold.

I was wondering that too. Looks like it could maybe be a small piece of PVC pipe?

ya know, ive never been interested in avics till lately honestly and lookin at some of these photos is def. making me want some.. love the coloring and i like the contrasts of their colors against natural plants. love the A purpurea. also, which type is the pinkish/purple spider on the leaves in the last pic in 1st post?

Thanks everyone! It is 2" black pvc stuff. I use the larger for my larger ts..terrestrial and arboreal. My husband cut it, made the hole in the side and the little cuts on top and bottom. He used a wire brush on a drill to rough it up inside and out to make it easier for them to climb. I get a 10' piece for about $12 so, pretty good deal, and no mold.

Those look super great, TGirl! Looks like a very happy avic home!

Some Avics in some cool setups! I like the pvc, no mold and alot cheaper than corkbark.

I love it! Thanks for sharing! Would love to grab avics soon!

 

[tarantulagirl10]

Thanks everyone! They seem to be settling in, both ate last night. No webbing yet, but that could take a while.

I rehoused one of my Avicularia juruensis tonight. Figured I would share a couple pictures. It's pretty easy to see why they call these guys "yellow banded pink toe". I love me some Avics

This particular one is 2.5" to 2.75" I would guess.

and thanks for finally answerin the above question... ive since learned more about this sp. and have been searchin like hell to find one or two.. Im still a bit confused on this particular specie.. i see bronzeISH phases, and the blue phase both as juruensis... what gives?

 

[1hughjazzspider]

Awesome looking juruensis. I can't wait until mine starts showing color like that. Mine grows so slow, it's still only about an inch. :/

That's the Avic sp. peru purple, I have an inch long sling doesn't have that color yet.

 

[grayzone]

thanks.. looked like the juruensis, but i wondered why it didnt have the yellow banding..
