My A. geniculata with his first meal since he moulted:

My new A. geniculata (purchased as a female, not confirmed yet), looking lovely as always:

The male is much larger, diagonal leg span is probably double that of the new lass but she is so much darker and I'm not really sure why.

Coloring can vary by individual, by age, and by where it is in the molt cycle.

Yes, it just seems like he's hanging on to his 'sling' reddish colour for a very long time. He may darken as he hardens more into this cycle.

Lasiodora parahybana:

He has a superworm, I swear. He's pretty fresh in his moult cycle, too.

Phormictopus auratus:

This is my favourite thread. A fed tarantula is a happy one, and it's so nice to see all the photos of happy happy spiders. Just a random thought that popped into my head, always happy when I view it.

L. parahybana in his signature "I have food" pose. Looking stunning, as always.

Tapinauchenius rasti, doing her signature walkabout post snatchin'. The strut, and those legs.

Poecilotheria ornata with her morioworm meal.

 

[Marika]

That poor dubia got stuck in molt and died even though I tried to help it, so I gave it to my G. actaeon.

The Last Supper ( Idiothele mira 2.5")
Hopefully it's not his last supper, but it's the last meal he's getting from me before I ship him to his future mate on Wednesday.
