Nice pics. Your GBB looks like mine did when I got it, so it might be about a moult behind. But it's bigger. Crazy

 

[P. Novak]

thanks..well i read about it recently on the boards here. i folded up a paper towel to cut down the light so i could look at it, and put the molt over that (kinda like one of those light tables architects use) the light shines through the paper towel and the molt, which makes the spermathecae more visible. it helps a lot with smaller exuviums. the b vagans exuvium in the picture has a 2.5" leg span. tried with some other small molts but they were a little twisted or just torn up and couldn't get a good view.

ps. to answer your ? in your pic thread, the vagans is now about 3.5" and was a little confused by the second half of the ?..is it a reference to them being possible cross bred sp? i have seen this mentioned here and there but haven't seen anything "official" about it.

oh alright thanks! ill attempt this later on in the day.

Wow yours is about 2 molts ahead of mine, and oh no no, you said you had another brachy coming up so i asked what kind? lol

 

[xgrafcorex]

ohh its an albopilosum. theres some pics or at least one in previous posts here. its a little bit over an inch now.

 

[P. Novak]

I saw you there and were sitting a few chairs away next to Wade and Christian. I wouldn't worry about those mites. They fall off in about a week or 2. A couple of mine have em also.

 

[David_F]

Nice pics, Brian. Great color on the GBB sling.

Wow! I didn't realize you had gotten one of the X. spec. "white".

Hi man, good pics as always

Tanks for posting in my thread, and i must say U have good clinical eyes , I remember you have found something wrong with kirdec's pokie. Thanks for alerting me. This is the only T I keep under very dry conditions, and its the only one to have problems with mites. Any suggestions or coments are always welcome.

thanks,

Galhardo

thanks. i wish that were true! heh. i've had mites on a couple myself, but i never noticed until i looked at a close up photo that is strange that the one you keep extra dry has them keep it dry and a substrate change i guess should do it. i only saw a small amount, so its not too bad.

nice pics man.that b.emilia one is awesome!

thanks...emilia is my favorite brachy i just am too anxious to see it start getting adult coloration.

 

[xgrafcorex]

[xgrafcorex]

came home for lunch today and thought i was going to get to see one my rosea molt after already hooking out. luckily he was just making a sperm web! i've never seen one before so i was pretty excited..also relieved i wasn't going to lose him. the last one is just one of one of the legs.
