Just recieved 4 new T's from Kelly atSwift Invertebrates:

1/4" Aphonopelma behlei
1/4" Aphonopelma hentzi
1/4" A. geniculata
1" N. coloratovillosus (free)

Sounds great ! Genics are pretty fast growers. But your in for a loooong wait for those other two Aphono. Not to sure about the N. Col. but I beleive its similar to the genic.

Congrats! :clap: :clap: :clap:

Yeah, A's are slow any way you look at it but such sweethearts! Great choices!

Who wants to make a bet?

I've got ten bucks that sez that A genic will be 3" before either of those Aphonopelma's are 1"...

Congrats on the new bugz. You have a nice assortment there. It will be interesting to compare their dramatically different growth rates as they mature.

No way am I going to take that bet.
We own all 4 of these sp., and I'll bet you that the genic will be 6" before the Aphon's reach 1"........
The Nhandu's grow pretty well, too.

Congrats on the new kids! You made some great choices! :clap:

I know Aphonopelma's are slow growing, but I love them. I want have a collection of our native species. I live in Las Vegas and they plan on developing some BLM land by my house. In May, I plan on going and trying to collect an A. iodius or an A. mojave.
