As I was packing up this female P. murinus for transport, I got a nice threat display.

Thank you! She is in another place now, making babies (hopefully) for another hobbyist.

Those versi's are some of my favorites. They are always the ones that make outsiders (to the hobby) interested. They are also my most ferocious feeders - they tackle prey like theres no tomorrow!

Nice spiders !

Just a note , Ceratogyrus bechuanicus is no longer a valid name, the valid name is Ceratogyrus darlingi (C. bechuanicus being the junior synonym).Richard Gallon recently published a paper about the synonymy :)

Thank you for bringing that to my attention, Webmaster. I have changed the labeling now.

I am a college student on a college budget, so while I shouldn't have spent the money on them, I did make it easier on myself by buying mostly slings and small juvies.

My collection is pretty small, too, I just like to take pics as they molt ;)

Tried to be a little artsy with it, but she wouldn't stay still (didn't like the feel of the paper - she would always walk off and sit still on the carpet:rolleyes: ).



Here's a little better picture.
