Last photo for tonite

This was another fun one to get

This is a 1.5" Pterinochilus murinus "Usambara" sling, a.k.a., a baby orange bitey thing.

Time for more pics

This is a sub-adult male Pamphobeteus nigricolor. I'm still itching from the clouds of hair this little bast**d kicked up as I chased it all over the place trying to get it back in its cage =D

I'll start off with one of my favorite spiders, a subadult Nhandu coloratovillosus, tenatively sexed as a female but I'm waiting on the next moult to be sure:

still itching from the Pampho...

This has been a popular subject the past 24 hours. This is my juvenile male Acanthoscurria geniculata.

The best bargain in the hobby

This is my recently moulted female Brachypelma albopilosum.

 

[Code Monkey]

One of the nicest Ts in the hobby

This is an adult female Aphonopelma bicoloratum.

 

[Code Monkey]

eyeing the A. bicoloratum jealously...

This wee one is definitely in its ugly duckling stage. This is a Brachypelma boehmi sling.

 

[Code Monkey]

This is a Cyclosternum fasciatum sling; as small as it is, the bumble bee striping is already starting to appear.

 

[Code Monkey]

from tiny acorns do mighty oaks grow

Not looking much like the 8" giant it will be one of these days, this is a Grammostola aureostriata sling.

 

[Code Monkey]

acorns come even smaller

This is an even younger Grammostola aureostriata - I thought the one pictured above was small when I first got it, but this one is the smallest I've ever seen.

More tiny giants

This is my Acanthoscurria geniculata sling in the middle of the age ranges. It's just starting to get a hint of the striping.

 

[Code Monkey]

This is a Brachypelma ruhnaui sling. I really, really hope this is a female as I shelled out the bucks for two of these things and the other one died right after I got it.

 

[Code Monkey]

Even less exciting than the last one, this is the youngest of my Acanthoscurria geniculata.

 

[Code Monkey]

enough of the midgets

This is a juvenile Brachypelma albopilosum. I think this is a male, if so he'll have a date with my female pictured above one of these days.

LAST PHOTO!

This is it, the last shot. I've spared you looking at each of my identical bald sac mates

This is my juvenile female Brachypelma emilia. She actually ate something for the first time two nights ago since her oral infection so I'm hoping she's over the hump.

This is my other Brachypelma smithi; unfortunately, it's also a juvenile male. One of these two better knock up some nice girl one of these days so I can get another female - wanting another nice, fat female smithi is what I got back into the hobby for, heh.

Code,
Did you setup that smithi in a enclosure, where the lid is the floor?
Thats what it looks like. I like that idea, no lid to hide the view.

Did you get that one from Swifty..(okay I admit it, I started reading this thread from the end, backwards..) My little sling looks just exactly like that, from Swift's..except, I havent seen it lately..it has an entire network of tunnels throughout its vial..and has permanently gone into hiding.

Yep. That was my freebie on the order I got from him last week. Somewhere I'm hoping to be able to get a breeding pair out of what I've got: 4 young Chacos from 3 different bloodlines.

That would be just a little too clever of me. Nah, the little bugger was happily posed on its cork tube and when I lifted him out of the cage the silk mat took a ton of substrate with it, creating the impression you see.
