here's a recent shot of "the racks." sorry it's so dark.

obviously, i need to clean off some shelves and make room for more critters.
current count is 66 tarantulas, 43 scorpions, and a breeding pair of dynastes tityus beetles. and a bunch of roaches, but they don't count.

The jars, second from top shelf, what are their dimensions? Whered you get them? Impressive collection and shelving unit. Keep the pics coming!

the jars are simple plastic 1 gallon jars found at walmart in the tupperware/kitchen section. there are also ones about half that size, which are also handy. they run around or under $3 each.

Some gorgeous spiders you have! I really like Ms. Munchie and your C. lamanai. Very nice photos!

 

[kitty_b]

i had to chase this little guy into the open today. i feared my little boy had become a man without me knowing.

fortunately, he's not "all grown up" yet

 

[kitty_b]

I just finished rehousing 20 Aphonopelma seemanni slings, 4 Aphonopelma sp. paysoni slings, 5 Nhandu vulpinus slings, and 1 of my Poecilotheria regalis juvies.

Only got one good photo though.

 

[kitty_b]

Ha!

my grumpy juvie t. blondi boy, monster, just molted when i wasn't looking.
he's as big as my hand (long way) now.
