Possibly repairing her web. Sorry Zukin!

Hanging out

"Screw you guys, I'm going home"

At home, looking mysterious

Avicularia versicolor
This is my versi, Flashback Freestyle This one's at a 2 and a half inch leg span now. It is growing very rapidly, which makes me wonder if it's a male. Time and molts will tell.

Thank you! He is a cute little guy
I seriously thought I was going to lose him last year. Maybe some of you remember, he's the Chaco that had the nasty blister on his opisthosoma. Here's the thread, you'll see the pics:

What a relief he got over that!

Thanks Jen! I've noticed that too! It's a very nice trait
Another sidenote, earlier this year this T showed symptoms similar to those of dyskinetic syndrome. It would go into crazy spasms, flick hairs like mad, and didn't eat or drink. Its abdomen shrunk considerably and the sides were bald from flicking. I would offer food every 2 weeks. After about 4 months of this, it just snapped out of it and nabbed a cricket. It's been fine since. Whew!

 

[pinkzebra]

Whoa! Really? I'm glad to hear it came out of it! It really is an exceptionally beautiful albo. Though I think they're all gorgeous!

That's awsome that your chaco got over that blister.
How many times has it molted since the blister was gone?

 

[Aunt Ant]

He has molted once, since the molt that got rid of the blister

 

[LittleGiRLy]

Great Ts! you take beautiful pictures :clap:

 

[jinx]

I love your pictures and your T's. Thanks for posting those and please update us!!

 

[Aunt Ant]

Aww man way to put me on the spot Thanks a lot I appreciate that. Guess I'll have to borrow back the camera from my sis I've had plenty of molts and some new additions the past few months. The G.pulchra doesn't look like a baby anymore, but a tiiiny brown adult. It's too cute

Welcome to AB btw, you'll learn a lot here

It takes a bit, but Homer finally gets that pesky roach!
