t. kahlenbergi throwing a slight threat(?) posture at a light pointed to its little cave (I don't blame it, just amazing to see him/her for the first time in a few days lol). I love how he/she has expanded the cave today so that it can be observed pretty clearly from outside.

All 5 of my P.sazimai are weak eaters but one. This one has an appetite of a geniculata. It's so entertaining seeing it wrestle with a dubia baby

Sorry if this has been done already, but I couldn't find it here. I feel like slings are underappreciated, as a lot of slings have dull colors compared to their mature counterparts, and wanted to create a thread to show off some of your slings. Here are a couple of mine:

 

[me and my Ts]

Psalmopoeus victori


Pamphobeteus machalla


Aphonopelma seemanni


GBB
