LOL, made you look eh..?.. Just some pics of my little C. fasciatum that molted today.
When I received this lil T as a freebie it was so small I did'nt think it would live. I did'nt know what to feed it as it was about 1/2 the size of a grain of rice. That was late last Summer but he's come along nicely. Was the size of a honeybee before this molt. Still small but not microscopic like when I took him home last year. To be so small, he takes crickets without any hesitation whatsoever!
Colossus....:D think I'll stick that tag on him for good.

Beautiful!

Oh man I miss mine a little more every time I see a picture of another one. Little as they are they sure don't act little. :p

I love how there's no sense of scale in the first two pictures, it could be anything from sling size to blondi size, and then that last picture puts it all in perspective. :D

I have 4 C fasciatums about that size. They're very entertaining, active little spiders. Love 'em!

LOL @ 'so small it wouldn't survive'....

HA!
-Only because I did'nt have any live feeders small enough. I used the smallest crickets I could get from the local LPS and crushed the head.
