Hope it's fine with you all for me to post a few of my male regalis. I've only this and a couple of younger Ornatas, that's all I have for the Poecilotheria at the minute.

First pic looks ugly, but it's just for a scale reference to it's size. It reached this from a10mm spiderling last October...

Another, let me know if I've posted too many, I'd hate to waste bandwidth or irritate you with constant streams of the same pics....

Martin,

Thanks for the great photos. However, I am getting an error message when I click on your links for the photo collages. Can you repost the full URL, please?

TO BILL AND MARTIN:

Just curious what cameras you guys use. Both of you have absolutely stunning pictures and I am once again in the market for a new Digicam.

In the end, it's best to NOT have a pokie, or usumbara, or togo starburst, or even cobolt blues unless you are an experienced hobbiest.

On a side note, even an experienced guy like me won't keep a pokie. I'm not a fan of agressive species, for the most part. My H. maculata is probably going to stay my only exception :)

Bryan,
After the convention, and the fact that I came away with 4 Usambaras (3 now, R.I.P. lil dude), I'm not so scared. Of course, mine are still slings/juvies. They mostly run and hide in their extensive burrows. Unless its time for dinner. If they get hungry, they'll come out, and hang by the entrance to their burrows..:)
A funny aside; when I changed them all into their respective Gladware containers, one absolutely refused to come out. So, I simply placed its previous container (a tiny condiment cup) on its side, inside the Gladware thingy. I went about my way, cleaning house. I came back about 2 hours later, to see if I could get the cup out. The lil cutie had made a above ground cave, by covering it with webbing! Now, several months later, you can't tell there was ever a condimant cup there. Its completely white. (gotta get pics)
Besides, at the convention? Immortal_sin and I shared a room. She won a Pokie, and it molted whilst we were there. I was shocked, to say the least, when I saw the dramatic change in size it went through.
Peace, Light & Eternal Love..
Gillian
