Ha! What are the chances of that!

Jumpers are always an awesome addition to any photo portfolio. Don't worry much about spiders that have established a web in the container to take lidless photos. They "generally" like to stay on their marked areas and not just go running out. YMMV on OWs though.

Was just about to open up the enclosure for feeding time, someone woke up on the wrong side of the dirt curtain

Is there a right side of the dirt curtain for irminias? Mine gets slap happy when I do maintenance.

That's true

Sometimes I don't even have to do anything; I just hear scuffling noises as she tries to rip out her plant, and it snaps back, and then she threat poses at it.

That's hilarious I love the spicy ones

Looking forward to rehousing her in a molt or two.

But I'd rather have threat poses than hairing or bolting.

Ours was a pig to rehouse, but that was only because the enclosure she was in was really difficult to get her out from. She just kept standing her ground the entire time and refused to budge, and I was hoping she'd bolt so we could get her into a catch cup for the transfer. Lessons were learned! Would much rather have threat poses over hairs for sure, though.

Hey LVC where did you get the enclosure in the first pic from, T. Albo?
I look high and low for those in the UK! I've found ones on Amazon but they're usually posted from way way overseas!

OBT...one of the few species I will never own myself. I like baboons, but OBTs never interested me. They're just nuts and I don't deal with crazy if I can avoid it

I didn't think I'd enjoy the species as much as I do. Mine's pretty laid back (so far ) I quite like the spicy ones

Oh, don't get wrong I've had nutjobs in my collection. Still have some, but there's something about OBTs that just makes me shrug and move on.

Chewie (P. murinus) has webbed the lid overnight and made a little exit practically on the lid.

That's gonna make maintenance fun
