And so it begins.
The male was provided by @Otis Driftwood, and needless to say, the male arrived safely. Why "needless to say"? Because of this:
(schnauzer for reference)
Excessive packaging, but I suppose too much is better than too little. He did a great job packaging the spider, he clearly did his research. He had a heat sink and all. There was a bit of condensation from the cold pack (it did not leak), but that's to be expected.
The container was a Really Useful Box! Kudos to him for that. The male was packaged very well, although I didn't get a picture of it. The male bolted out of the box as soon as I took off the top paper towel, so at least he's lively.
And here's the not-so-little guy. He's quite large for a male, spot on at 5". Very active, very healthy, and clearly strong. The boy's got some good genes.
------
And here's the soon to be couple. I will be pairing them on Friday and taking a video of it, which I'll be posting here. Finger's crossed!
Note to the mods: This is not a review of Otis, nor did I buy this male. Just clarifying for the sake of the TOS.
