Avic love thread

I have 11 atm.
It feels like a good amount to me.

As your males mature, you’ll have spots to fill.

As your males mature, you’ll have spots to fill.

This is Truth.

 

[IntermittentSygnal]

This is Truth.

Not pleasant to think about, but as I was recently reminded, once they mature, their clock starts ticking.

Avicularia avicularia M2 (ex A. braunshauseni), freshly molted female.

very beautiful

very beautiful

She is, but if I was very limited on space or had a hard ceiling on my collection, then I'd probably choose Avicularia variegata.

Immature male going on an impromptu stroll around the safety tote. By far, the most gorgeous...

 

[Spinnenfritzi]

wow that variegata looks amazing.
i see no huriana love anywhere...
they look so sweet ...are they unpopular?

 

[l4nsky]

IIRC, huriana is now A. juruensis M2. They're around.

You’re not wrong that they are now considered jurensis m2. However, I do believe it pertinent to label the “locality” of your Morphotype like you did with the image of the braunshauseni. Just because I buy a jurensis m2 doesn’t mean I’m getting huriana

 

[Spinnenfritzi]

the taxonomy of avics sucks....

@Mike Withrow
You're gonna have to fight off fcat for a chance to dangle from those godly emboli

Did someone say gloopy emboli from an avic? Ha ha

Oh...Godly!

 

[Spinnenfritzi]

Little update ...not really an avic anymore, but i got a little C. versicolor today

 

[Spinnenfritzi]

Ok i am a total convert...
i love my caribena versicolor and today at an expo i Had to Pick Up a 2 Inch female A. purpurea. Those are so gorgeous in
person! Pictures really dont do them justice


I really love Avics now....
still need that huriana....and a minatrix...

 

[IntermittentSygnal]

Congrats!! They really are quite fabulous. I'm currently keeping four. I was planning on filling my most recent spots with a few old worlds on my list, but thought, ya know not every new T you get has to want to kill you.

 

[ladyratri]

I wonder sometimes whether I can sneak a sixth bin on the spider desk if I include an A. minatrix and D. diamantinensis in the next round......

I love my A. purpurea. She was my first T.

I don't have A. minatrix (yet..), but D. diamentinensis does not disappoint. It's a lovely species, with a strong feeding response and super cool webbing. Plus they're dwarf species, so they barely even count in the "taking up space" department. Two or three dwarf habitats = one normal sized spider, right? The math checks out.

Here's my handsome Avic. purpurea juvie- I think it's looking male, though.
