Well,

I got a couple of new T's over the holidays and I'm very happy at the two that I brought home. These are some very fine looking T's.

Female Brachypelma smithi

Cyclosternum fasciatum

I got a Smithi too. It doesnt have the red, though. Its just blk and orange. I am jealous. :drool: Unless she will get it later. She is only 2.5 inches. How big is urs?
I thought about ordering the faciatum. But I dont like the fact they only get 3 or 4 inches. Maybe one day.
BTW, have u named them yet?

Your B. smithi is beautiful! How big is it? Do you know the sex yet?

Hello,

My B. smithi was named when I got it and so I kept the name it came with. It's name is Carleta. Im pretty certain that the smithi is a female and I'm also pretty sure the fasciatum is a female as well. The fasciatum is around 3.5 inches and the smithi is around 5.5.

If you dont have a T that webs a lot I would look at getting a Cyclosternum fasciatum. They are fairly small but mine is creating lots of webbing in the cage and on top of that it's a really pretty T.

I have a 1 inch GBB (Chromatolpelma cyaneopubescens)
That little thing has webbed almost the whole jelly jar. She will pull a sneak attack on the crickets. Jumps out and grabs them and pulls them in. I can see the struggling underneath the web and then there was stillness.

that is a big fasciatum, I have 3 slings. Biggest about 1.5 inches. Can't wait for them to get bigger.
