I supply my Ts with water dishes, but have never seen them actually drinking until now. Aphonopelma bicoloratum.

LOLi remember when i first got into T's, my A.Avic was drinking from his water dish and I thought it had drowned because it was dead still. I kinda prodded it a little bit and the damn thing reared around and attacked the stick. Then I figured out that they breathe from an area under the abdomen. DUH!
I have a mental image of a pinktoe sprawled over a beer bottle saying "Man, what a week..."Avics sure do drink a LOT
my daughter and i were checking out my h. gigas on one of her rare showings and she told me that she had something wrong with her cause she had holes in her underside. i paniced and had her show me. she was quite surprized that they had lungs in their butt as she put it.i remember when i first got into T's, my A.Avic was drinking from his water dish and I thought it had drowned because it was dead still.
