Stunning! I love them and your P. irminia is absolutely gorgeous!

 

[macbaffo]

Nice new homes!
So i guess the lullaby worked!

 

[Anansi12]

Man your Phaedra has such feathery legs and bold coloring... makes me miss my Tigerlily, she's been holed up for nearly two months now. And that A. minatrix is stunning

 

[Gaherp]

That geniculata is looking great, and love that irminia. Keep them pics coming. Makes me want to post an update

 

[freedumbdclxvi]

Love that minatrix. What a gorgeous T!

 

[advan]

Nice A. minatrix Jan! Get a vent shot, they are bloody easy to sex.

Thanks! She's one of my most dearest to me

Thanks, buddy. And yeah, I guess so

Thanks! She's a looker and fully aware of it (based on the time she's out showing herself ).

That geniculata is looking great, and love that irminia. Keep them pics coming. Makes me want to post an update

Thank you - she's in need of a molt, though.

Love that minatrix. What a gorgeous T!

And absolute cuteness, yeah

Nice A. minatrix Jan! Get a vent shot, they are bloody easy to sex.

I'll try get a vent shot tomorrow, but I just rehoused her into a more appropriate enclosure for now (until I get the final one next week). I'm not a pro at ventral sexing, but I'm kinda sure about this one somehow

Just finished with the rehousing of some more T's, but the bloody video turned out to be too dark again! Dang it...it's kinda annoying as it was quite funny! You're probably right, Chad, that little versicolor tried to actually bite me, lol Was easy to transfer her though - she just turned around and tried to when she already WAS in the new enclosure . Tappie and purpurea couldn't have been easier either...I don't know why people have so many problems with that stuff, lol. Whenever I'd have to do that with my P. cam girl again...I'll try reminding myself of that sentence I wrote there

Either way, some pictures and a little vid with some (kinda dark still) footage.

Once it's uploaded, the vid:

A. minatrix (put her into a slightly bigger enclosure for now until I get the right one next week:





And the new enclosure I just finished decorating, which will most likely go to one of my Avics (possibly the A. azuraklaasi even - not sure about it yet)

 

[Storm76]

Ventral shots

So, since Chad asked for it here's a ventral shot of that A. minatrix and I'm positive that it's a female now


Some more...suspect female A. versicolor


A very female E. pulchrrimaklaasi (E. sp. "blue")


And a shot of "Phaedra" being out and about in her new enclosure. She's out every evening - beautiful 5" girl...

 

[advan]

Yep the A. minatrix is a girl.

P.S. How is a spider very female? Does she have extra spermathecae?

*evil eye* Pff, Chad! Quite "pronounced" would've been the better term..yaddayadda...you know what I meant

Moody?:biggrin:

p.s. Great new pics and enclosures!

Thanks...

Total Recall T!

Somehow, I didn't get that one... ::


P. subfusca molted...found the molt out today morning - Size of molt 2"...wondering how big the T will be now? :biggrin:


A. purpurea juvie "Iolanthe", 2.5", unsexed (suspect male, although I'm not that sure about that anymore :sarcasm


Dunno what happened with this pic, but obviously my seems to be doing some weird things nicely (vids taken are completely dark is just another one...)


A. versicolor juvie, 2.25", unsexed (suspect female on this one)

 

[Gaherp]

that purpurea is looking great gonna have to definitely get me one. That versicolor is coloring up nice, can't wait to see it fully matured.

 

[Storm76]

Some updates on the T's in pictures

that purpurea is looking great gonna have to definitely get me one. That versicolor is coloring up nice, can't wait to see it fully matured.

Thanks, yeah I love this species for their color and usually typical Avic temper. They can be -really- quick though if they want. None of mine is out during the day, this pic was taken last night.



Figured I could do some pictures as updates on some T's...

Brachypelma boehmei, "Kenna", 1.75" unsexed


Brachypelma boehmei, "Kenna", 1.75" unsexed - don't let the puppyeyes fool you - he/she bites!


Psalmopoeus cambridgei, "Moriko", ~5.5" female, sitting still upon me opening her cage for a change


Psalmopoeus cambridgei, "Moriko", ~5.5" female, I was shaking taking this one knowing her...


Psalmopoeus cambridgei, "Moriko", ~5.5" female, ...and retracted my hand not a second too soon as she turned like a whirlwind!

 

[Storm76]

...update Pt. II

Grammostola pulchripes, "Nyx", 6" female - she's currently very calm and let's me even touch her...let's see how long it'll last


Avicularia azuraklaasi, "Nila", 4.25" female - measured her! She seriously gaine 1.25" in that last molt...insane!


Avicularia azuraklaasi, "Nila", 4.25" female, sorry about the flash - she wasn't really in a mood for pictures


Avicularia versicolor, "Sylva", ~2.25" unsexed, sitting in a better position for a pic, you can actually see the urticating bristles on this shot


Chromatopelma cyaneopubescens (GBB), "Spot" - this is the one that escaped during the visit of the family - and he did so again when I opened the lid! GRR - 20 min chasing him...wth is wrong with this T

 

[Storm76]

...Pt. III

Acanthoscurria geniculata, "Medeia", ~4.25" female - looking grumpy as usual, she certainly is a hair-flicking little monster!


Euathlus pulcherrimaklaasi (sp. "blue"), "Gemma", 4.5" female, most beautiful terrestrial in my opinion...


Euathlus pulcherrimaklaasi (sp. "blue"), "Gemma", 4.5" female, close-up topview


Euathlus pulcherrimaklaasi (sp. "blue"), "Gemma", 4.5" female, close-up side "profile"


Euathlus pulcherrimaklaasi (sp. "blue"), "Gemma", 4.5" female, urticating hairs (never saw her kick them, nor do they seem to have any effect on me anyways)

 

[Storm76]

Avicularia minatrix, ~2.5" female, no name so far - in "scared mood". She looks fine, but she obviously needs some time to adjust to her new home. I've since decorated it some in hopes it'll encourage her to start webbing some



That's it for now. Hope you enjoy

Avicularia minatrix, ~2.5" female, no name so far - in "scared mood".

Adorable! Lovely shots of the rest too, especially the P. cambridgei. Great you managed to get a few shots in; scary stuff.

 

[MarkmD]

Love your collection of Ts, grate enclosures and brilliant pics.

 

[Legion09]

Beautiful pictures of some beautiful T's! Thanks!
