Thanks guys, the fimbriatus is one sweet T! I just love their looks and it's always a treat to see her out. Voracious feeder too :D

I really can't wait for my fimbriatus to get a bit bigger, and be out in the open more (hopefully). Right now all I ever see of her are legs poking out. Such a gorgeous species.

I figured you'd like her, was wondering how your little one is doing. You said "her", do you know that? Yeah, the slings I had a ways back were pretty shy but would come out to crush crickets. This girl goes through stages: sometimes it'll be weeks between appearances, other times she's out 24/7


Rehoused some arboreals, none of my subfusca pics were worth posting but here's a couple of another pretty girl (though shy hehe)


She's growing fast, molted a couple of days ago and put on a lot of size and starting to get her colors :)


I got this T as a freebie, I've never wanted an Lv before but she's just too cool. I think she's a keeper :D

You never wanted an Lv before?! I'm fighting temptation as we speak...so badly want to put in an order with TC for Lv and L. nigerrimum, but it's not really in the budget right now. Yours is gorgeous. :)

Edit* As for the fimbriatus, I don't know that it's female, that's just wishful thinking on my part ;) and you are correct, I really like that spider, even if I never see it.

Lol I admit they're gorgeous spiders but for whatever reason, I never had any inclination to add one to my collection. Though if I were really honest with myself, I think I'd actually like to have one of every species on earth. But it's my feeble attempt to keep control on the size of my collection and not be subject of an episode of hoarders :sarcasm:

But all that said, it's an awesome species, as is the nigerrimum. I think you should do it, get both. It would be the right thing to do :D


After I don't even know how long, my little chalcodes molted

This girl is hard to catch


Dashed out, grabbed a cricket, and vanished back into her lair

You have an absolutely beautiful collection. Love the last T. (G. Pulchra? If I'm wrong sorry, still a newbie.) And you're camera work isn't too bad either.

I totally would, but I just picked up a regalis finally :D So now I REALLY can't afford to place an order for those 2 :(

Thanks Shogun, not a pulchra but a Lampropelma sp. Borneo black. Absolutely gorgeous T though very shy. Appreciate it!

You went pokie style!?! Niiiice, I still maintain that the regalis, along with the subfusca, is the most beautiful of all pokies. Congrats, it'll grow super fast and hopefully be female :)

I did! :D I have been wanting to get a regalis for ages now, they're probably my favorite pokie. I lucked out with this one, local pick up, came with enclosure, and is about 3.5" (unsexed, but if turns out male, I'm ok with that, 50/50s are a beautiful thing lol). When it ventures out a bit more, I'll try to get some pics.

Btw thanks for teasing me with that Lampropelma :p ...TC has the borneo black available too....and yours is stunning, I am so tempted.

Lv and Ln, as well as an OBT (I miss the one I had), and a P. irminia because I just can't resist psalmos. The borneo black will have to wait a bit. :)

Dayam, now that's what I'm talking about. What a great haul, a whole bunch of ornery goodness right there! I see bumps to your pic thread in your future...at least I better :D


Very nice lampropelmas! The lv is just beautiful.
Thanks man, I wish I could capture 'em like you!

Haha, of course...either friday once I get them home, or the weekend for sure. I'm going to stop derailing your pic thread now. ;)

with a little bit of time and practice, everyone can take good photos :D.
If you cam has a good macro option - for sure! I just have to look at Chad's pics and I know what I want to be able to do with my cam :) Takes time, still practicing ^^
