    Saved some sort of spider from the cats little while ago. It was about an inch and pale grey. Finally after it figured out I wasn't gonna hurt it it let me carry it outside. :)

I provided her with a small ceramic cave tilted on its side against the glass, and halfway in the dirt. But, she was like ,"pssshht. I aint usin dat." Oh well. :P Im sure once she molts a few more times and gets bigger, that cave will look more inviting.

    I've only got the 2 irminias. I have a habbit of buying 2 or 3 of each that way when I figure out what the sexes are I can keep my favorite female and sell off the males and any females that have bad attitudes. well thats the plan anyway. I dont like the idea of how males only live for a few months after maturing so if I get more than one of each type it increases my odds of having one long term. i've got 3 chacos, 2 versicolors, 2 indian ornamentals, 2 brazilian reds, 2 normal rose hairs, 2 gold fluffs, 2 red zebras, 2 a. geroldi, 2 a. metallica, 2 az blonds, 2 sun tigers, 2 flame hairs, and I've got an order in for 2 ghost ornamentals, 2 straight horned baboons, a bunch of red rumps and curly hairs coming in thursday or friday that i'll be keeping at least 2 of each of those also. I may have missed a species or two. its late and i'm to lazy to go in the reptile room and double check. lol

    Awesome Crystal!
    So you flipped the 2.5 for your irminia?

    And if I remember right, it takes about a week to 10 days for the babies to leave the mom after they hatch. They will be all over your house if you aren't careful.

    Mike, they don't run from a red light like they do a normal one.

    Damon, whats a "gold fluff"??? Sounds something.....:eek:
    And yes, I did flip that for Tigra. I moved my rosea into a new 2.5 gallon i bought. When Tigra gets even bigger, I may move her into Pinky's 6 gallon cylindrical terrarium because once he matures im going to sell him.

    Mine is getting huge in her 2.5 and is still very happy. I think they won't ever need anything larger than a 5.5.

    Gold fluff is a Grammostola sp. Maule I personally think its just a color phase or sub species of a G. Rosea. It looks. Well probably get a better idea if you Google it. They are really fluffy though lol.
