User JohnDapiaoen's Tarantula Picture Thread

Is this the mother of the slings I purchased from you earlier this year?

Yep, how are they doing btw?

Wow! Is this tarantula really so green? It looks amazing! :wideyed: I'm not too familiar with the different species of Poecilotheria, but most of the "green" species of tarantula that I've seen really weren't.

Yeah that's what she looked like in natural lighting. She'd a bit duller now cause she's due for a molt.

All three are doing well! They've grown substantially and have nearly full adult colors -- I love the long black legs with skeleton markings!
It's been a while now since any of them molted and they're eating less but most of my slings are behaving similar so I think it's part of their yearly cycle and/or they slow down as they grow (I've only had tarantulas for the past 9 months and am still very much learning! ).
The E. murinus slings frequently modify their webbed tunnel-burrows and that is fun to watch.

This photo was taken appriximately three months and one molt ago:

Having just rehoused my three E. murinus slings, I took advantage of the opportunity to get some...
