What? I'm confused.

Hey friendttyy,
4 T's are enough to start your own pic thread. You can always add more later!

Ooh. That's what was being asked.
Yeah!! You could just have one T and start a thread and add as you go.

My M. balfouri poking their heads out of the burrow all huddled together. Not many things cuter than this.

Awesome collection. What if there was ever a earthquake or just that your habitat stand fell apart. Would you freak out due to the possibility of any of them roaming anywhere throughout your house? Lol.

Haha I've thought about this before. And with my luck, I'd be stuck under the rubble and one of my OW T's would find it's way on my face and start building a web there. Haha

Hey LuiziBee, I just noticed a comment left by you on Jan's (Storm76) thread, and followed the link here. Great fun going through the thread, it clearly displays your love of the hobby!
Aside from Avics I'm pretty much addicted to OW arboreals ... probably because they're so much fun to photograph! :biggrin:

You've got a great collection and many cool shots. Thanks for the tour, I especially like these ...

Thank you so much!! I LOVE your picture thread! I wish I could get shots only half as good as yours! (Darn fancy cameras and expensive macro lens and learning how to use them! Haha) I've only been in the hobby for 5-6 years and am taking it extremely slow with any OW T's. Currently at five. I'd die if one escaped on me, which is why I like fossorial spp. I've had three arboreals over the years. All three A. avics. My first two I had for three years before they both hooked out and died on me. My third one I recently gave to a local friend just getting started in the hobby (and before I had time to sex it - I'm convinced they're all males.) Your thread was actually an inspiration for me to buy a macro lens for my phone so I can at least get some cheap macro shots.

Thanks for the nice words LuiziBee! :worship: It really means a lot to me to hear that you enjoy the shots I post. You can be sure that for every photo up on my thread there are dozens which I would never allow anyone to see!!

It really is just a numbers game ... which is fine since macros are SO addictively fun!

 

[LuiziBee]

M. balfouri, one of the derp twins, has had a secret molt!

Love the balfouri shots! I've got three little slings, can't wait till they start showing off their stuff!

Are you keeping yours together at all? Two of mine are, and then I've got one that is slightly larger than them that I keep separate. But last night I learned I officially have two that are showing some adult colors. So I am extremely excited about that. My other one is probably in pre molt/molting right now in it's burrow. I think they're really cute when they're all gray, though.

I forget where it's at (a foreign forum if I recall), but have you seen the thread by the guy who started a commune and now it's spread through most of his house, several generations? Pretty cool! I thought about keeping the slings together when I got them from Jason, but he suggested that at their value (despite there being essentially zero reports of actual cannibalism with the sp.) I might be playing more risk than I'd care to. :shrug:

Mine are still tiny and gray. :biggrin:
