Tuesday added a 2.5” female G. Iheringi. She looks stunning next to my 4” suspect male. And finally added a Brachypelma to my mix, ~ .5” B. emilia.

Finally found a good deal on this new jewel to my collection.

Juvie Female A. Moderatum.

Very excited to finally have one.

Now to just wait a few years till she is ready to breed. Lol

Also picked up a T. Rasti not pictured cause I am pretty into that genus right now.

Looks like someone has a future project.
Fingers crossed yes 😊
Already pairing some adult G pulchra (screen shot from video in my Tarantula Pictures chread) and G actaeon. Have also had a few other successful pairings this year woth c versi, T ockerti, T albo and waiting on sacs from Avic avic, G pulchripes, T schroederi, T khalenbergi and hopefully a couple of others I am not going to mention as I don't want to jinx them! 😉
Exciting and busy times ahead.
The current head count of 237 will certainly be growing thats for sure. Love this hobby and after 30+ years the breeding of these wonderful creatures is my next passion.
Learning loads and some of the breeding reports on this forum is invaluable to that process 😊

Had a few new ones land today, a very welcome birthday present from my beautiful and very understanding missus.
A £30 mystery box from The Tarantula Shop, comprising a juvenile P sp rufus (£32), a sling H maculata (£5) and a sling B Boehmei (£9). So a cracking box!
I already have an H mac, but another isn't a problem, they are stunning creatures.
On top of that was an O phillipinus, an S crassipes, and a replacement P pulchra following a DOA 6 months ago.

Pterinochilus murinus dcf Zimbabwe

I had one over the summer that I got as a sling, but it died within a few days, completely randomly. I have been searching everywhere to get a replacement without any luck. Until earlier this week. I got it in today.

The B. klaasi is stunning! Are you planning on breeding him?
I agree, he is gorgeous. Yep, got 2 large AF recently moulted plus maybe one more if he still has any energy left ha ha.

🤞 on them as B klaasi are one of my fave Brachypelma species.

Here are the 2 lucky ladies lined up.

0.1 A.geniculata

Used to be dime a dozen, but today at what's probably the biggest exotic pet event where I live, there were perhaps two vendors selling them.
The plan was to get two babies, because it's such a joy raising them from tinies to monsters, but couldn't resist snatching a relatively small tweenling for less than what an unsexed AG at the other stand cost.

Can't go wrong with a genic. Great choice 👍

I've ended up with another curly hair. Plus a crested gecko.
Both being kept in a car by a bloke whose lost his housing after threatening the landlord with a knife.
Curly hair is in moult, so will hopefully be ok.
Kept in a round pot with a coconut shell hide the same size as the pot, on a substrate of what looks like garden soil.
Hopefully it will molt safe and can then be rehoused.
