Tarantulas and Spiders

Nice!
I still haven't seen mine all the way out from her last molt.
All I have seen are legs but she looks huge now.

And here's a newer shot of my recently shed A. versicolor. Chillin with its new piece of cork bark.

cute! I fed my irminia for the first time today, and she mustve been hungry cuz she came out of her burrow.

well I took the plunge into T's. I thought I was gonna be all carefull and slow. Well about 2 months ago a friend gave me a pink toe to see if I would like to keep tarantulas. needless to say I really enjoy watching her! The wife bought me an arizona blonde at the columbus expo while I was at work last week. and well we went to the richmond, IN expo and I got a little caught up and bought a few slings. lol I got 2 of the following: Poecilotheria Regalis (indian ornamental), Psalmopeous Irimina (venezuelan suntiger), Nhandu Carapoensis (brazilian red), and Grammostola rosea (rose hair). I also picked up an E. Pulchrrimaklaasi (metallic green beauty) which I no longer have. A friend saw it and I couldnt tell him no since he has a juvie male. Well not everyone would cooperate for pics tonight but here's some crappy cell pics that I managed to get.

sorry the brazilian reds didn't want to come out for photo ops. and i'm not really up for opening the lids on these guys. I just transfered all of them today and being new to T's I needed a break from the stress. lol

Thanks for looking

Lol everything hits me hard! I seriously have an addictive personality. Also the fact that I've worked with hot snakes in the past kind of brings my comfort level up a bit working with these guys. Its nice to know that if I do take a bite its just gonna hurt like hell not kill me. I still have a lot of respect for them but its a far cry from dealing with diamond backs and eyelash vipers.

Yeah working with Hots would help a lot.
That's something I have never done.

Brought my camera to work today. Trying to catch a few true spiders (and any other bug that i come across) digitally :)

Haha for some reason I read daintily instead of digitally so I was real confused until rereading it lol

Lol...yeah Nick anything Rich does is never done " daintily" lol
