Everyone's right Chad, incredible post!! :D And those fang shots are masterful, so difficult to do well. That first one Beth posted, staggeringly perfect! :)

Ok, they're all great but that 3rd fang pic....wow! :clap:
Thanks Shell! :)

I fully agree with Shell - you've outdone yourself with those fang-shots, Chad! Awesome, work!
Thanks Jan! :D

Thanks Petri! All it takes is two small crickets at the size of that little thing! hehe :D

These are my faves from this last batch. LOVING the webbing shot though - would love more with a bit more web to it. :D
Thanks Beth! I just need have a photo sess during feeding to get more webbing, maybe soon! :)

Thanks Michael! It would have been easier with a stand! ;)

okay, officially, please come over and take pictures of my spiders. I will pay you in...idk, whatcha want? A spider? ;) I'll throw in a few beers and a 3-year-old and we'll call it good? :D

edit:
I could also pay you in money, if that's, you know, preferable.

Most epic thread :)
I've used this thread a couple of times already to help show non-enthusiasts the beauty of tarantulas. With succes I might add. At the very least it helps them understand one of the reasons why we like em so much and makes them less hostile towards the hobby in general.
Keep em comin :)


Also, This makes my think of orang oetans :)

Ya know, my feelings would not be hurt in the slightest if one of my P. pulchers ended up looking like that... She is gorgeous!
