nice pics

Hey Draiman great pics!

Im a fellow Singaporean, also interested in T's, but only have P.inermis. Was wondering how to get the other local species like brown C validus , and the Lampropelma violaceopes.

My p. inermis is really quick and jittery, retreating to the burrows very quickly.

You have the most awesome gear and an incredibly enviable collection! Your C. shioedtei vid made my day! (my very favorite species)

Keep 'em coming!

Awesome pics and videos. I especially like the L.V. on your wrist... How big is she now? Mine is 7.5 inches and I'm curious if anyone has one over 9 inches.

Wow! What lens did you use to get that shot?
Lol, as usual - my 18-55mm kit lens and a Hoya macro filter.

A few new pictures:

Poecilotheria regalis



Stromatopelma calceatum



Cyriopagopus schioedtei - a big, big girl

Superb!

I wonder though, is that P. Regalis a male or a female?

Looks to be much bigger than mine is, but mine seems to already have more color.

I have no idea lol, it's only about 2". Here's something you won't believe - it's already 2 years old! I got it together with a bunch of its siblings as tiny second instars in March 2009 and while I've sold some of the rest and even got a mature male from those, this little one has hardly grown. They were all kept in the same conditions too.
