Very cool video. Do you exclusively use super worms as feeders?

Normally, I give Blaptica dubia, Shelfordella tartara and with some occasions locust, crickets and superworms.

I love your setup, what kind of back-lighting are you using in your racks, it that black light or LEDs?

Thanks, I use Led strips.

Thanks, I use Led strips.

And it looks like that level of light doesn't bother your Ts or make them hide?

Yep, even my Poecilotheria metallica doesn't seem to be bothered with this type of light.

Really nice specimens!
How do you keep the molts? Do you put anything on them or do you just use pins to secure them while drying/to just keep them like that?

Yes, I use pins to secure them while drying. Nothing special to add to keep the molts like this.

I have to ask, how do you rehydrate your molts? I've been trying to pose mine but they are so brittle.

GORGEOUS photos and tarantulas.
