Finally got some T's

[MatthewM1]

.5" Lasiodora Parahybana


. 25" Cyclosternum Fasciatum x2


2" Poecilotheria Regalis



All I have for now is blurry phone pictures. Everyone is settling in nicely, I can't wait to watch them all grow. The regalis is stunning. I was beyond nervous unpacking him/her but it went very well. But just incase it went poorly I did it in a bathtub with every crack and crevice in the room sealed off with packing tape and a catch cup handy on either side of me.

Set up a new enclosure for the regalis. It's a vertically oriented kritter keeper. What do you guys think? It's outgrown it's deli cup, molted a week ago. Figured this would last untill pushing adulthood at which point I'll probably do a 10 gal vert for it.

Welcome. Your lucky your Regalis unpacking went so well, mine went for a run across the empty room. The LP will grow like wild fire, I got my slings all around the same time and the LP has nearly double the number of molts

The Regalis is going to be a lot happier in there than in that little deli cup.

 

[MatthewM1]

Thanks guys, gonna get it transferred either later tonight or tomorrow. I hope this transfer goes as well as the unpacking did. I'm go to a do it Jurassic Park style. Tilt the deli cup onto it's side, hold it up to the opening of the kk and slip the lid. Hopefully no one gets eaten tho...

Thanks Eric, I'm sure it will be. There's a 2" Avic I've had my eyes on at a lps. But it's much easier to talk the girlfriend into new acquisitions when I trade off roaches and what not for them or at some type of show or expo where I can get them cheap. I got the B. Vagans 2 for $5,she couldn't tell me no

Finally got around to rehousing the regalis. Went very smoothly. I had the bathroom on lock down incase it decided it needed to run laps around me and be difficult.

On a not so bright note, a little while back I was removing a bolus from one of my C. Fasciatum enclosure's and my clumsy ass knocked it over. Fell a good couple feet and hit the ground hard. Never found the spider but I'm doubtfull it survived the fall.

It happens man. I once lost a $30 B. auratum sling in my carpet at 1 AM. It was the exact same color as the carpet and it was an 1/8 of an inch. I'm still kinda bummed since auratum is definitely my favorite species

 

[MatthewM1]

Ouch, rough man. I'm just glad I had 2 of these little webbing beauties. The remaining one just molted to 4i last night I can't wait to see some adult colors.
