Getting some more wishlist T's on Tuesday. Most excited for the Balfouri, one of my top favorites:
3/4” Pterinochilus murinus x2 (Rusty / Butter)
1.5” Monocentropus balfouri (Frostbite)
1/2" Chilobrachys sp. electric blue (Cable)
1/8” Heterothele villosella (Luco)
1/2" Psalmopoeus cambridgei (Mirage)
I name everything, so I've pre-planned their names.

Edited to add: I didn't take any photos, they are all mostly still in the deli cups they came in. They weren't shipped, they were local pickup so they have substrate and so on. I rehoused three tonight, but, I didn't want to bother them anymore than necessary. Have to admit, I'd forgotten how tiny 0.25 is.. lol

Very pretty, getting a 3” male of these! Love how this species looks!
Me too. They're beautiful, but also have a sort of cute/ innocent look about them that really appeals to me. And they're so fluffy too. My new female is really calm and docile, probably the best-tempered tarantula that I have. I'd wanted one for a LONG time, then decided to go for it. Are you going to name yours?

Likely I will name him! I name most of my T’s, gotta wait to see the temperament first.

I haven't even heard of those genus, let alone the species. Looks like I have some reading to do.
Except for Guyruita, which I've been keeping for a while, the other three are new for me too.

I mean, I've already heard about them, but this is my first keeping them.

After being recommended an Acanthoscurria Geniculata to get back into buying new Ts I did a few days worth of research and have ordered a roughly 2cm sling :)

Got a new supposed female Pterinochilus murinus yesterday. Needs to be rehoused, 75% of floor space is taken up by a vial that was left in its juvie enclosure.

Went to a reptile show and got a TINY Avicularia minatrix sling, around .25" DLS or the tiniest bit over that in size. Would have bought two but they only had the one left. Also got a Grammostola iheringi, about 1.25" who got the honor of being my first bolter and near escape. Thankfully I was re-housing in the bathroom with everything sealed off and the enclosures both inside of a box. They didn't get too far, but not for lack of them trying I haven't snagged a photo of the minatrix yet.

Oh I also snagged a wolf spider. Almost forgot about her/him lol.

Adding a splash of orange to my collection, an O philippinus and 2 OBTs:happy: The OBTs are already showing some orange, but the O philippinus still has a long way to go.

O pillippinus:

OBT #1:
This one went straight to the starter burrow and stayed there for a while, but is now roaming in circles at the top of its enclosure.

OBT #2:
This one was a bit stubborn and didn't want to leave its old delicup, and eventually had a bit of a roam around the edge of its new enclosure. It then quickly started webbing the entrance to its starter burrow and shut itself in. (Its stubbornness let me get a few extra pics though)
