Perfect time to molt (yesterday). B. hamorii, female, 4.25"DLS (molt size).
Got her 5/18/2015, under .5" and only flicked hair a handful of times. Been raising this one as a gift for my great niece. She'll be stoked this Christmas for sure!

This is my male B. vagans! He's my very first tarantula, and I feel incredibly lucky to have such a great lil guy to introduce me to the hobby! He just entered his ultimate molt, and I'm hoping to find a female to breed him to!

Posting because the moment was hilarious. I think it's underbelly looks like a particularly famous bear that says no to forest fires.

Just received my first B. albopilosum yesterday. At 1/4” it’s so small and adorable.

 

[Christoph27]

Male albipolosum.
He got annoyed by the cricket and i had to get a quick picture of him showing off his size.

 

[Ungoliant]

Male albipolosum.
He got annoyed by the cricket

"This is not a female. Try again."

 

[Christoph27]

"This is not a female. Try again."

Im aware it's a male, that's why I posted it as a male. Who said it was female?

No, that's what the male tarantula said when he rejected your cricket.

A new addition today...
Unsexed, Brachypelma albopilosum. Smaller than About a 3'' legspan.
I am still deciding on a name, but am considering "Tuco" (as from the movie The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly).
(waiting on permanent enclosure to arrive in the mail, should be here Thursday or Friday)

 

[Arachne JC]

Which Brachypelma speciea do you like the most and why?

 

[Michael bradley]

Tbh I love them all and finding it hard to choose one as I love them for there individual things.. I have 5 different brachypelmas but if I had to choose would be my vegans.. his personality is amazing and always doing something spidery haha..

 

[Arachne JC]

I also love them all but if I will choose among them, it would be between my B.emilia and B. boehmei
