Only saw that now, sorry Jeff - that sucks big time!

Thanks guys, really appreciate it. I feel like there's a whole in my collection. Hopefully not for long....

 

[jbm150]

I haven't posted pics of this lovely young lady for some time. New clothes and new home

Ok, you can go away now

Beautiful Jeff!

Having just received a couple of these slings a few months ago, the beauty even at that size quickly made it one of my faves!

The more I look at those olivacea, the more they start growing on me...grmbl *adds to T-List*

Gotta say Jan, I was shocked by the beauty when I got mine!




One of mine just finished its first molt in my care last night, can't wait till it's safe to coax it out and have a look!

Thanks Michael, yeah, I was as well when I received mine. Just so golden! She's darker now that she's gotten bigger but still beautiful as all hell!

They're ridiculously cool spiders: voracious, ornery, and gorgeous. You gotta get some!

I agree, they are very cool. Mine died last year at about 2.5 inches, with no obvious reason as to why. Just crawled into its web hide and curled up. It was definitely a bummer.

Goddamn it all to hell, the girl who wouldn't run has passed away. I was anticipating a molt and had her new palatial estate ready for her once she was done. I woke this morning to find her dead and I have no idea why. Just....sucks

RIP beautiful Laika

I'm a little bit late here, but sorry for your loss. Beautiful spider.

That sucks dude, losing any T does but especially something that rare and expensive.

Thank you, I appreciate that. It doesn't replace her but I do have some new slings on the way


Rehoused my L. nigerrimum slings, all four of 'em made a break for it and were a handful

Argghh my attempts at shrinking my collection have completely backfired and I'm moving in the opposite direction. Plus I want all the girls I recently sold back lol

Picked up a species I've long wanted but have never been able to get. Hopefully these are the big, jet black minax that make my mouth water :drool:

Haplopelma cf. minax big/black x3







I guess I'll know for sure in a few years

Never!

Nice pick ups Jeff! It's nice to see you diving back in!

Downsizing the collection rarely ends in the intended "downsized" result, as far as my experience is concerned. Glad to see you posting again.
