I rarely handle my Ts , one time I itch so bad woke me up in the middle of the night like 3am I had to take a shower just to rid of it, aargh!

Hey Joe, don't let that stop you from getting a blondi, when i bring mine down in june you'll fall in love with her. if you get one before that time, then just wear a long sleave shirt and wear a pair of rubber gloves when doing water changes and removing dead prey.

Yeah, i saw that you had urs in a 30gal. and i happened to have one laying around so i figured what the heck and she seems to love all the room. She is between 7" and 8" its kinda hard to measure her, but maybe sometime in the near future i can get a more accurate measurement.

Hi. How do you get a T Blondi or really any other T off you and back into their enclosure without aggravating it?
Hey Phuck-o,
I have no idea about a T Blondi, but any other T? . . . What do you mean?

Well since Ts aren't really keen on being held they are usually more than happy to just walk off your hand. IMO holding them is what pisses them off, not being put back. Some are just more tolerant than others. BTW xanadu1015, she/he looks WC to me(hence the rough exterior). Should be back to normal after a molt. Good luck with it.

Gosh!! :eek: Wow!

You have guts Laura! I think all in all your blondi is a beauty and I hope that the abdomen gets in better shape after the next moult! Then you'll have a real pearl on your hands :)

aren't you afraid your spider could hurt itself on the plastic scraps by the air holes?

i've noticed they can be very sharp sometimes :(
