How cute!!!
Was it a freebie?

I got one as a freebie from Kelly on 2-20-03 & it was soooo little that I had to put on my glasses to see it. Looked just like a wee little moving speck.
Since then......it has molted on me 2 times & grown some. Now I can see it without my glasses.=D It is a good eater except when approaching molt......then it quits eating for a couple of weeks. It has reached 1/2" leg span & is quite a Little Miracle. (its name)

SOOOOOOOOOOo tiny!
I had to get my glasses so I could see it in your picture
Couldn't even see it with my third eye, LOL! (see AV) ~:0)
Great picture

How fast do they grow??

So cute and helpless,...... makes you wonder how they survive being that small in the wild...... Amazing......

I love the tiny little t's. Whichever is the smallest is usually my favorite. Kelly Swift threw in my current fav. as a freebie with our last order. We have had him for a week now, and he is SOOOO cute. His name is Cadburry, he is a Chaco Golden Knee (Grammastola aureostriata). I took this picture just now, with a dime for sizing purposes. Isn't he adorable??

ohmygod. you know, six months ago, no one (including me) would've ever believed i would've held, much less willingly gone close to a T, much less an ordinary wolf spider (they flock around me here...lol).

now, i have my own G. rosea, think she's beautiful and am thinking s'lings are one of the cutest friggin' things i have ever laid eyes upon.

that's it, i've lost it...i'm checking in someplace, any suggestions?

Well, G. aureostriata was my last freebie too from swifty too. Mine is definately bigger than yours, and since I imagine they are s'iblings, I'm guessing mine is male.

I'm thinking Swift is rather fond of sending out wee freebies... The Usambar I received from him was and is incredibly small, and still black. He's in premolt now, though, and has been eating like crazy so maybe he'll grow a bit...

Hmm... Maybe not. Maybe they aren't from the same sac at all! Chin up Jon, don't give it up as male yet.
