LOL I love when other species do the "Pokie pose"... my G. rosea was completely sprawled out in a full on Pokie pose the days following her last molt.

I didnt know that was a pokie pose haha. I've seen my rosie do that fully stretched out. I never did get a picture though. She hasn't done that in a long time.

My psalmos slings do that often when they climb on my hand while doing maintenance. They usually stop between two closed fingers length-wise and assume a pokie stance. Really cute.

Lucky duck!!!! Never seen that in person, but I have seen a pic someone else's rosie doing the exact same thing. Seen a Pokie-Stance out of every one of my arboreals, and once out of my C. fasciatum (not surprising since that one is a semi-arboreal spp.). But that's gotta be a trip seeing a heavy-bodied terrestrial doing that!!!!

well no, but that doesn't make it any less cute.
Indeed!!!! :D

What a great thread topic!!!! Wish there were more pics of it in this thread, though. Right now, I can get a pic of one of my Psalmos doing the Pokie-Stance.....but we already knew they're wannabe Pokies anyway, LOL.
