Nice pics man!....new cam?...they are comin through very clear

Thanks man, nope, no new camera. I'm just learning to use angles and distances better. Its a point-n-shoot camera better designed for long distance shots so its awkward for macros. I'm getting a bit better with it

Baboons

I just realized I don't have a single good picture of any of my irminia


Anyways, in anticipation of my new arrivals, BABOONS!

Nacho, my MM, currently trying to find him a good home and some good lovin'

Jaira, my beautiful female, post molt

So happy she lost her yellowness and became orange as hell

Unnamed H. gigas, think male

Until I owned this species, I never noticed they have pale-colored feet on their front legs lol

Psycho, A. cf junodi female, finally molted after long last (still little)

No good pics of this one unfortunately, but look at that golden color!

Can NOT wait until my new Ts come in, very cool ones

 

[jbm150]

New additions!

Rehoused yesterday, this one kicked my butt!

Now to the new kids

I. mira, a very rare baboon in the hobby, this thing is so adorable!

Not sure what size it will create it's trapdoor at, hopefully both sexes do it

B. auratum, unlike the other two in this post, this little one doesn't go anywhere in a hurry

It's home, sorry for the mis-focus

Lovin' the flames

I know I've said it before but I'm juuuuuust about done with my collection.



Seriously

'Nother one coming

Here're some pics for good luck

New B. auratum molted and is female!!! Here postmolt

This girl is gonna be a stunner as she grows!


B. emilia molted and is male (they always are)

Here looking like he's threatposing out of his burrow (first of my NW terrestrials to take advantage of a hide)


Holy good God, this thing is gorgeous. I have to try to get a better picture but here's a taste. I didn't realize how dark their legs are!
Violet, C. fimbriatus, postmolt

This has got to be one of the most beautiful tarantulas out there!

 

[Protectyaaaneck]

Gorgeous fimbriatus!

 

[BCscorp]

Sweet collection of spiders you have!

 

[jbm150]

Gorgeous fimbriatus!

Thank you sir, here's another shot of her on the hunt

Sweet collection of spiders you have!

Thank you as well, it's not big but I'm happy with it


New arrival!

Having had no luck with slings, I finally decided to bite the bullet and buy a sexed female. Here's her temporary home:

She's bigger than I thought, gonna try to get a bigger enclosure this weekend

Reina, female B. emilia

After her next molt? Just wow!

Mexican beauty

I got a thing for ladies from all over the world

 

[jbm150]

This was too cool, I had to try to get a pic

My little mira molted (might be male ) but then built a trapdoor! I can't wait til he hardens up and can use it


What evil lurks around the corner?

Deadly beauty (excuse the poopy glass)

 

[jbm150]

Ladies love a nice bubble bath

These little ones seem to molt every few days but haven't put on much size (I THINK my two are female!)

(A. brocklehursti)

 

[jbm150]

Pasha, Aussie goliath, post molt

Just love this girl

 

[Shell]

You got an I. mira?? I'm soooo jealous, I'm definately coming over to steal that one.

 

[jbm150]

Hehe yep, a single sling. They're pricey but took a chance. I think its male but still, they're beautiful little spiders with interesting behaviors

 

[jbm150]

Beautiful little lady out on the prowl post molt

Flipped!

She's finished, I'm a little concerned though. I see a bit of fluid and I can't be sure but a spot that doesn't look fully formed. I am letting her rest but I'm nervous.....

Edit: She's all scrunched up (not dead) but I think she lost two legs in the molt

 

[jbm150]

The poor girl looks so sad, she doesn't want to try to move too much. She's still kickin' (literally) this morning so I think she's gonna make it. I might have to baby her a bit until her next molt though I think she'll be able to still hunt. What really sucks is I know exactly why this happened and who's fault it is (mine)

She's absolutely stunning though, such a beautiful species B. emilia is!

 

[jbm150]

Holy smokes this girl looks good!

She looks funny without her legs but she has a special charm

Simply gorgeous!

 

[jbm150]

Bad pic of a gorgeous spider (my god, seeing it blown up, it does her a disservice!)

I can't believe I'm selling this girl and keeping her little sister. I wonder why the size difference, I hope I'm not keeping a runt....

 

[jbm150]

No trespassing

I've yet to get a single molt from any of my 3 H. gigas. I haven't the foggiest on any of their sexes

Molting again!

 

[Jason31]

that GBB is a beauty

 

[jbm150]

Thanks Jason, she definitely is a looker!

Been a while since I've posted!

Got a roach with my last batch of crickets, big sucker. Denali just molted so she was the happy recipient of the big meal
Here she is munching in her post molt glory

 

[jbm150]

For the past month, I thought I would have to sell my entire collection soon. I received news this weekend that this won't be the case! So here's a few not so great pics for celebration

Aryana molted! It was nearly a year but she did and has gotten bigger. Over 6" now

My little brocklehurstis are getting bigger

This girl's getting close to molting, I can't wait!
