Tegenaria's Picture Thread

[Tegenaria]

Following the sad death of my White Knee, Mary from arachnophiles kindly sent me a P.cambridgei!
Unbeleiveably fast little buger it is too. I opened the canister it was in to transfer it to its tank and it shot straight up my arm! I oput it back in and it went up the other arm! Was worried I was gonna lose it,never known one so fast, apart from a Tegenaria I had!

She also sent me two others which was a pleasant surpise!
One is a curly hair sling,B.albopilosum,very small!

and the other is a Yamaia sp Koh Samui, which I hadnt even heard of till yesterday!

Gobsmacked!!

underside of cambridgei

Heres a shot of the underside of my juve cambridgei. It does hide a lot but if you sit and wait, ocasionally it will come out and give you a photo op.!

 

[Tegenaria]

couple more shots, she has nice feathering on the legs, very cool!

I think he could do with being in a taller container?

Pip molted!

Hurray, after 6 months she molts!
And has developed stripes on the legs-looks like a T now!

Well, first molt with me was late August,6 months ago.
Current LS is about 2 inches but it will expand as she grows into her new skin

 

[Tegenaria]

Got a couple more oics after coaxing her out, shes become skittish after the molt!
she looks biger today ,like she's fillled out!

Just saw Hawk,my P.cambridgei out and hes made a new web tube, he obviously doesnt fit too well behind the bark anymore! Looks all mossy green now and is about 3 inch across.

and heres Pip my Chile rose juve, who has ben overtaken by Hawk above, but may be due a molt soon as she looks fit to burst!

OH MY look at that butt of hers... very cute tho, I like it when they have big butts.

 

[Tegenaria]

Rehomed my Yamia yesterday, still a tiny little thing about the size of a big Mouse spider(Scotophaeus)

And heres a shot of Hawk the P.camb with locust-getting to be a big un now!

 

[Tegenaria]

My Curly hair

He molted twice in June and is now looking like a curly hair and catching the chile rose up in size!
I thought Brachy's were slow growing?

I didn't have time to go through all your pictures and the comments, so I'm not sure if anyone asked yet, but have you powerfed your B. smithi and G. rosea?
