its about time i got around to a thread dedicated to all of my own T's..i figure this would be a cool way to watch all of my little slings grow and keep tabs on how they are doing..ill include all of my T's in this thread past and present but i hope for it to mostly be a vehicle for all of you to watch my slings grow up and become responsible adults!


lets start it off with a freshly molted avicularia fasciculata sling
fast little bugger!







avicularia versicolor sling fresh molt





p metallica sling recent molt







i tried to get a ventral shot for sexing but i have no idea how to do it without flash glare off the glass...seems impossible tome and i wasted like 20 minutes tonight trying to get a good one to no avail...anyone have any tips?

Nice pics,
I love your avic and pokie collection.
By the way your P rufilata and rufus are male.

regards

The metallica is probably a bit small to sex properly, either ventral or spermathecae. As for the rufilata better lighting would help, as of now I can't really c any indication of male or maybe a little, the whole area seems to dark to tell for sure. However, and this is purely from my observations, as pokies start to mature, the female tend to lose that vertical stripe on it's abdomen, I'm not sure at what size... or how much, it's just a pattern I saw from looking at pictures.

Nice pics Lead. Personally I'm leaning towards female for the rufilata and the regalis is male 100%.

lol so i decided to give my p metallica the biggest cricket he has ever had and this is what transpired!

i look up to see my T strike the cricket and roll over on its back with it holding it with one leg wrapped around the cricket...was pretty funny

looks like i can get it sexed pretty easily now...who can sex it for me?

ill link to a VERY large shot at the bottom of this post





eventually he got himself turned back over



im just happy to see him/her eating...i havnt seen it eat too much since ive had it

but this guy right here...hes a beast when it come to eating...heres my p regalis's new clothes



and here is the xtra large shot for sexing of the p metallica
