Nice collection! Drooling over your H. sp blue...

 

[paassatt]

Great collection! Loving the homoeomma Sp blue you're going to have a lot of fun with that one. U have 2 females one about 3" and one 5" and they never skip a meal.

Yeah, I've seen pictures of yours, and can't wait until mine gets the adult coloration. Still gorgeous as a spiderling, though. The way it pounces on crickets so ferociously at such a small size reminds me of my C. cyaneopubescens when it was a wee one.

Thanks. You should turn drooling over one into owning one!

Yes they do. Although I have noticed a difference in feeding behavior after the 4" mark. And if yours ends up being a male lmk maybe we could do a breeding loan

It's been like a month and a half since I posted some new pics, so I figured now would be a good time.

Those are some great looking Ts you've got. That B. albiceps is gorgeous!

Thanks. I took that picture around the middle of March or so, and she hasn't been fed since. I'll wait for her to molt and shed some of her excess fattiness. Her last was back in last November, so she should be due for one soon anyway.

You've got some very lovely Ts

I appreciate the kind words!
Picked up a new addition yesterday, Ceratogyrus darlingi:

 

[paassatt]

It's been a couple months since I last posted, so I figured I'd go ahead and do that.

Haplopelma lividum after a rehousing

Acanthoscurria geniculata after her latest molt

Cyriopagopus schioedtei

Brachypelma emilia before and after latest molt

Brachypelma albiceps

Homoemma sp. "blue" munching after the latest molt

Poecilotheria subfusca (I wish I would've taken a video of her hunting and catching this cricket...it was amazing to watch)

Is it the lighting, or does your H. spec. blue has whitish looking leg-bands?!

I'm not quite sure I know what you're referring to, but I'm sure it's just the camera's flash.

I figured as much, but thought I'd ask to be sure. I was talking about the leg-bands between the "knees"...

Ahh, okay. Yeah it's just the flash playing tricks on your eyes.

Thanks, Jan! It's a spunky little thing for sure. Fearless, too.
