I am re posting this URL.

I want everyone who has not experienced these awesome little guys to take a look :)

These are of my
A. diversipes
A. versicolor
A. jaruensis

slings.

Interestingly, the only sling that I felt was calm enough to handle was the versicolor.

The diversipes and jaruensis were both very fidgety and flighty. The jaruensis in particular just wanted to book it and keep on bookin'. :p

Yeah...

The A. diversipes is definitely the prettiest spider I own and probably will own, but the A. versicolor is much more fun to watch and interact with.

I'm really looking forward for my M. balfouri, "Mokey" to molt. I will take a pic of him/her after that.

Mokey has a lot of attitude, and when he/she isn't in it's hide, it's webbing up, or digging, or sitting on top of it's hide. I'm actually quite pleased about how active and visible Mokey is.

I'll have pics soon.

Ya..I have five 3rd instar A. Versi slings that I just luv. I bought that quantity to guarantee a female and was planning on selling some, but they're beginning to grow on me...lol. One little fella is so gentle when I feed it. I cut a piece of mealworm and stick it on the end of a toothpick and he gently pulls it right off the end. I also have an adult female A. Avic, but would love to get some other Avic species.
