OOOLALA in premolt


Aphonopelma ssp. container (found in S TX) She wasnt being too nice and only kicked hairs! Its really cool, I left around 2.5" at the top, she packed it all at the top when digging her burrow. Its so packed it is literally smashed, just like they would do in the wild under a rock or something. Very interesting!


You can see the lil hair kicker down there!

Just to save the Ts from being destroyed by the construction? Thats awesome. I love all of your random aphonopelmas.
That is something I would DEFINATLY DO If I had the chance. I crown myself the biggest animal lover on the boards:p

Yeah. I know about 3 places nearby that are all under establishment. Mostly neighborhoods, hotels, parking lots, etc are going up. It is really a shame. Over the past several years, me and some friends have tried going downtown to try and stop it, but for some reason it was "uterly ridiculous" as some would say. So we go to these areas and get as many out as possible. Then mostly relocate to protected areas, but some are sold (which I get a lot of crap about :rolleyes:)

Well as long as the buyer plans to never breed them then its fine.

During the summer, if you ever go to sell an unidentified aphonopelma, PM me. I cant get any more Ts for a while, but those aphos are amazing.
