    Well you're silly because you should have gotten roaches anyways. Lindsey doesn't know whats up.

    Cool! I was gonna tell you I saw some on Facebook yesterday. I was trying to wait until our next show in August to get anything else, but I'm sure the temptation will be far too great. I think I'm ready to try a sling. I have it narrowed down to A. genic or LP. Those of you that have had those, do you prefer one over the other?
    I have before and after pics of the curly hair. :) It was last Sat night when she molted, and she was somewhere between 1.5-2 inches beforehand, so should I give her another couple of days before I feed her to make sure? Or another week? I haven't seen her fangs.

    I love my LPs. They are growing very quick and will get huge :) (I have babies available)
    The LPs have kicked hair a few times when I look in on them.
    My A. geniculata is still very tiny. So I can't comment on that one yet.

    I would give her a few more days just to be safe, it won't hurt her to wait.

    Here are a couple of pics of the versicolor taking down newborn dubia.

    Heres the "house spider" i caught. It was in the window like 2 feet away from where my brother sleeps and he hates spiders haha. I fed it those two dubia yesterday. She injected them with venom and wrapped them up then later that nite he was eating them. Today they're both on the floor of the cup and look deflated so i assume she's full lol. It'd be really cool if it is actually a she and shes gravid! I wouldn't raise the babies, just let them go outside in the garden to eat bugs. ;)

    You should get one! They're honestly so easy, i should have gotten one way before. Some of them are so cheap too. There are a bunch of different species for $20 and under. Quite a few are even $10 and under! :gj:

    They could help eat all those mealworms you bought ;)

    Get 1 or 20!! :D
    Thanks Rich for the help avoiding temptation :P I've already looked at your list before thinking about how it wouldn't take them long to get here.
    The roach pics are so cute, that roach looks huge in comparison. I had a yellow crab spider I found when I was 10 or 12 and she laid a sac. The babies got all over the house. I thought they were sweet, but my mom wasn't thrilled.

    Crab spiders are cool. I'm doing my best to not keep any true spiders for now. I already have enough Ts to look after :p

    Mike, we have those all over work. I see them eating other spiders, even Wolf spiders, all the time. Cool find!

    yeah only a select few are that size, or they're that price when they're slings. Otherwise, juvies/sub-adults/adults are pretty pricey depending on the species. That's why I usually end up buying sling when they're $10-40 as opposed to larger ones that can be $100+.
