May I Buy You a Drink?

[Hobo]

Caught the B. smithi sling drinking from his dish.. for REAL this time!

 

[Audrey16]

Aww these are all cool pics makes you wonder how people can not like Ts. Ive seen all of mine drink from their water dishes, never managed to get a pic though

Well, I started a new job, and now have to be up at 5:00 AM. The second my eyes adjusted after flipping on the light, I saw my rosie face first in her waterdish. I've seen this from her before, but now I have a real camera, so......

(Keep in mind, this was first thing in the morning on a new schedule. If the pics suck, it's because I'm practically useless from the time I wake up until I have my coffee and a smoke.)

xsyorra - Congrats on getting a pic in time! i must say i am very interested in seeing that entire enclosure. Is that plastic mesh for the side wall?

LOL....It's a 5-gallon turned on it's side with a strip of plexi to hold in substrate; in effect, making it front-loading. As much of a pain as a front-loading terrestrial setup is, she is immensely happy with the increased floor-space. The mesh you are seeing is the same screen-top she's had on that same enclosure before the flip.

If she eats this weekend, you will be able to see it in the next feeding video....whenever this week I get around to completing that, LOL.

Didn't you recently watch your B. smithi molt?????

 

[Teal]

Yup! And it's the ONLY molt I've seen! I have missed three (P. regalis, P. murinus, P. chordatus) since that, and countless before LOL

So maybe I will get to catch a T drinking one time!

Thirsty H. gigas

Stabby getting his drink on. The surface tension on the water is wild!
Not a new pic, but thought it was really cool even if it's not the best shot.

i think that it is a fantastic shot! It shows the water tension beautifully, so don't sell yourself short! Thank you for adding your pic to the collection!

I cannot wait for our P. irminia to be that size. I love the way the adults look, because black tarantulas our probably my overall favorite colored ones. There is something about a large black spider, they just look so svelte and velvety; and I find that beautiful. Now we just have to wait for our little ones to grow up and we will have one!
