I got a 4 year old daughter, she likes creepy crawlies too like me.
Watch out.. My daughter at that age went hiking with me looking for spiders. Then in 1st grade she made a best friend who was severely arachnophobic and turned my daughter into one, too. She likes my T’s now, but it took years for her to get over that nonsense.

Thanks! The setups are all made by me but the enclosures were all made by our local enclosure builder. Sorry for your loss, they are a pretty species. Get one again?
Maybe I’ll just add it to the long list of Ts I need in the future to rebuy. Didn’t help the shipping restrictions they added to pokies.

Maybe I will interview those who want to be bestfriends with my daughter first before allowing them to hang out 😅 my daughter likes my roaches, superworms and frogs too. I hope she will continue to like them when she gets older 🙏

Meanwhile here in Asia people breed and sell P. Met’s cheap. I even got my adult female from a trade and is almost always available at bigger sizes and that’s why p.mets lost its monetary value 🤷🏻‍♂️ good for me though since even if they are cheap and common, I still like how pretty they are. I don’t plan to breed them anyways

Here she is trying hard to blend into the greenery ☺

My girls are out. I don’t usually see my mbalf but my sazimai is almost always out of her hide. I’m still waiting on my m.balf to web up her enclosure, she’s eating though 😁 IMG_6455.jpeg IMG_6456.jpeg

Those look fantastic! Love the photos! A long shot shot, but if you are in Taiwan, any chance sending me a pm on where to buy those enclosures? Apologies if that is over stepping, feel free to ignore! They look really nice :)

Thanks man, I try my best to replicate how their natural habitat would look like in my head. I know I got a couple of them wrong though. I’m not in Taiwan but I am sure there are enclosure builders there 👍🏼
