she's gorgeous. I also want to try and breed my girlie if I can get my hands on a mm. I don't know if its true but I read somewhere a while ago that people were having more success breeding this sp. when the female was a bit smaller than normal. It said the bigger the female the harder it was to get a sac. I don't know if there is any merit to this but I found it interesting anyways.

Went upstairs to grab some pics of my beardies (check out not so spinless blah blah blah) and saw she was drinking! I HAD to get more snaps!



ahh, I'm in love again! ;)

She loves her home as well!

Lol, she actually webs EVERYWHERE! From that picture above, she molted towards the top of that plant and log. She has a silken tube behind the log with the plant on the outer side of it, towards the back of the logs on the right, she also has a thin silk tube that connects with the main one. Shes fairly fascinating! I can just stare at her for hours!

ditto. Mine is one of my most prized T's. She's gorgeous. I think with the next molt she might be as big as yours.

She's a beauty!! :clap: I really like that tall enclosure you made Austin. The P. metallica is my "Holy Grail" T. May never get it but still keep hoping that maybe one day....

That is one beautiful T. Possibly the best looking T I have seen. Congrats. You thinking about trying to breed her?
