Any New Additions?

She was quite defensive when I gently touched her leg with a paintbrush to try and guide her out the old enclosure. This went on for a few minutes, so eventually I just left the old enclosure in the new one and she wandered out in her own time. Good luck with your rehousings

Stood her ground and stubborn? Or bolty and trying to flee? I’ll tame defensive and stubborn over trying to run any day! Easier to contain . Mine is usually pretty calm/bold but even when I do startle it when I’m adding a drop of water or cricket or just checking on it, there’s usually just a retreat to one of the various hides it’s made in it’s dirt/web castle

Definitely stubborn and stood her ground, at no point did she try and bolt.

Spring sling delivery last week included:

1 x Cyriocosmus sellatus
3 x Harpactirella overdijki
3 x Ischnocolus jickelii
3 x Davus sp. Chiapas
1 x Phrixotrichus vulpinus

A pretty nice haul, but they were unpacked in a hurry and I didn't get pics this time. I'll post some soon, though!

Ask and you shall receive (I was feeding it tonight anyway ). It is still very tiny, but already very fuzzy, and has Muppet legs!

So I rehoused mine the other night and it behaved so well. It retreated into its web castle, so I pulled the whole castle out of the vial and just gave it a little shake in the new enclosure and it just jumped out into the new one. Took about 40 seconds
