Do you see the meerkat/teddy bear?

Excellent photo as always, you need to get some more Pamphos, Xenesthis and Phormics so you can take photos of them too haha

I'm really hoping my Pamphobeteus antinous calms down so I can grab some pics of her. She was fine as a sling but as she's grown she's gone extremely shy.

Gutted and not gutted all at the same time. I finally managed to open my Poecilotheria subfusca lowland's enclosure with her bolting into her cork bark tube. But I couldn't get behind my camera to grab some pics so I had to resort to holding my camera with an outstretched arm and using the automatic focus.

It let me down. Managed to get 3 pics. Non good but this 1 was the best of a bad bunch.

The locusts really make a satisfying crunch.

I like how your Chilobrachys threat-posed at its food and then ate it anyway.
Plus tarantulas seem to kill locusts really quick. That's nice so they don't suffer like some crickets tend to.

My Chilobrachys fimbriatus is a little star.

It was only when I got the pic of my Poecilotheria ornata that I realised her carapace look like moss close up. My Poecilotheria tigrinawesseli was out and sure enough she's the same.
