So today i went to my pet shop to get some food. Asking the guy about ordering a P. Regalis in and a P. murinus, luckly he had P. murinus in, leg span im guessing is about a inch and a half. So the guy slowly takes the tissue out to show me the OBT looks good, he goes to put it back in, but it runs out of the tank, onto the shop floor, and under a shelf. Spent 10 minutes looking for it, found it, got the bugger back, very active, fell in love right away!!
He also has, what he called ''Costa Rican Zebra'' T i dont know much about this T but i just had to have it! so i get home, set up tanks for both T's, time to put the P. murinus into its home, me and my dad taken every precaution, treating it like a bomb. It runs out of the tank, onto the floor again!! to stop it getting under the tv, i put my foot in front of it, to my surprise, it runs up my leg( outside) im standing here, blood rushing, my dad running around me trying to catch it haha, was so funny! caught the lil guy and got it home, my first experiance with a T running up my leg, even worse that it was a OBT. These things are fast!! my last OBT was so mellow!
The Zebra T went in no problem
Anyway, heres some pictures of the new T's, just wanted you guys to confirm if it is indeed a (Aphonopelma seemani) Costa Rican Zebra! heres the pics!!
I also got 2 pinky mice today (frozen) to try on my T. Blondi, is there an advantage or disavantage to pinkies? i only plan on feeding them on rare occasions, say, after molts, to fatten it up quicker!! sorry for such a long post!!
