The Slowest Avic. In The World (pictures from the most easily captured T, ever!)

[RugbyDave]

Hello everyone!

Hope the weekend is well!

My A.avic escaped today, but the thing is -- She's really really slow (i've really never seen her bolt, unlike my other avics), and when she escaped, she went onto the top of a deli cup that was sitting in the sunlight... for once, i could see the beautiful colours, so i decided to snap some shots, since my cam was out with my PZB trying to win over pategirl's heart, so here they are: plus, my avic is down with being on my shirts... she'll just lay there, kinda pokie style while we listen to some good shoegaze music.. haha

here's 3 pics of the whole ordeal. This pic is where i caught her sunning herself (?)... which they never do, but still... beautiful colours!

peace,
dave

The Great Escape

Wish I could say that for my 3" Avicularia urticans, it shot out of it's container and ran under the couch. It's still AWOL. Aggressive ones too!

N-Joy

Hey RD,

Nice looking pink toe ya got there. I guess it's better that it's a little on the slow side than a speed demon. One of my A. avics is very quick and always runs up my arm and down my back before I can usually grab it.

To Midwest Art: You say you have an A. Urticans on the agressive side? Mine seems sweet, but likes to try and rub her urticating hairs off on me when I take her out of her enclosure.

I also have an A. urticans, cant really tell about its personality yet, its still a sling ,1". It is fast though, I also have a couple of A. avicularia and all three pinktoes are fast. By the way, does Midwest art have a website?

i dunno. i dont handle so much, so it doesnt matter if theyre slow or not to me, but it is a plus when she gets out, which is rarely, but it is cute to see her all pokie-style on my shirt on my arm...


cant wait tillthe molts come!!! such beautiful T's after a molt (nothing like a pokie, still, however!)

more pics!
peace,

My A. Avic is a speed demon
When I take it out, I have to have someone with me that
is willing to help out. Let me tell you, in this house it's not easy
to get anyone to help with these critters!

 

[RugbyDave]

yeah, my little avics are frigging fast! faster than my A.seemani, though that little buggers a bastard from hell

lets see some pics of your avics! Man, i can never get tired of seeing those guys!

peace,
dave
