Couple pics, G.rosea and H.Lividum

Sorry 2 of them are side-ways, I couldnt figure out how to straighten them.

And while I was lucky enough to see her.

She was even nice to let be get so close

Nice lividum pics.

Thanks, had I thought about it I may have used the zoom instead of getting so close, but thinking correctly at 4am isn't the easiest some times.

True, but you sometimes risk picture quality when zooming.

Very cool tunnel your G. rosea has going on there!

Pretty H. lividum! Don't worry.. I get too close instead of zooming all the time lol

I need to get good pics of our G. rosea enclosure. She's got a two story ant-like tunnel system right now. She has pulled up so much dirt she has buried the plants and the room from substrate to lid is maybe a couple of inches. It's been pretty fascinating watching her re-landscape. I will never understand why people call G. rosea a pet rock...........

 

[DeathsPyro12]

Thanks all.

Haha Teal, with my luck the next one I try it with is an angry P.Regalis. XD

Curiousme get pictures! I know what you mean, my G.Rosea covered everything, had to dig for the water dish. Although now that she has her burrow she acts like the H.Lividum, stays in burrow 90% of the time and really deffensive. XD

Awesome pics, hope to see some better pictures of your G.Rosea

I recommend IrfanView- it's a FREE image editing/graphics viewer software. It's great for simple things like rotating, cropping and resizing, but can also be used for more complex things. http://irfanview.com/

Also, good pics!

One time, I didn't realize just how close I was getting to Rise, my female P. chordatus, until she nearly struck the camera

I started paying closer attention after that
In addition to not wanting to get tagged, I wouldn't want anyone to break a fang on my camera!

Very nice pics. I like your cobalt alot too.
I just got a singapore blue today.
I've done alot of reading on them and I've had one versicolor.
I was just wondering if anyone knew more about them, or had/have one,
tell me anything I need to know?

Great pictures!!!

(I also second the motion for using Irfanview as a picture editor.)

Thanks for the comments all. I'll try using that photo program, I just happen to be horrible with computers.

Alright, here are a couple I managed to get of her two story villa..........

You can see the multiple floors on the left, ignore my arm on the right.....

 

[DeathsPyro12]

Wow, I really like the set-up for that G.rosea, may need to buy some more cork bark, and do something better with my G.rosea.

There are a couple of little succulents in the right front corner as well with a light on them. She like to hang out under the light, but she has all but buried the plants right now. Her tank has been changed multiple times and we haven't found a good fit yet, but I think she is just gonna fix it herself............... We will eventually be taking some of the peat out that she has piled up, because she has very little headspace at this point.

the ROCK

I will never understand why people call G. rosea a pet rock.

Mine is notorious for just sitting in one spot and not moving for weeks on end, kind of like a rock. Probably why they sometimes fast for so long and take forever to molt sometimes as well - not moving saves energy and wear and tear.
