    How big is your tiger rump?
    What was the surprise sling?

    I just got Spiders of North America but haven't really got into it yet.
    I'm not good at IDing at all. The pedipalps look huge!!

    irminia and pulchripes are 2 of my favorites for sure.

    His pedipalps ARE huge :) The tiger rump is maybe as big around (toe tips) as a soda can? I'll see if I can get size reference pic later today. She was SPASTIC on rehousing... Made me more nervous than the irminia, probably because she is also so heavy footed and she alms her feet down as she tramples around in a panic. Lol.

    Oh! Surprise sling is a red color form Rosea :) forgot to get photos since it is so itty bitty and looks like any other sling :P

    Ok, she is much more "furry" than mine but they are still tiny.
    My Bigger OBT was the same way. She ran out into a plastic tub and I could hear her running. She did about 3 laps at 100mph :p

    My irminia fought the chopstick when I rehoused her. Crazy how strong they are. Really hoping my little one is a male :)

    I have a ton of transfers coming up soon.

    Does anyone know the video code so a thumbnail of the video shows up? Instead of the play button? (Maybe its just my phone)

    Here is one of my millipedes.

    I took her out to take a photo for size reference... aaand about vomitted out of panic when she so kindly pointed out a crack between the wall and counter that I hadn't seen previously... by crawling into it. I got her back out by sticking in a coat hanger and slowly easing her out toward me. She scares the hell out of me. More so than the irminia... and I'm not sure why. I think it's because the irminia is fast, but still light footed and graceful.. she moves with purpose. The fasciatum is like.. on PCP or bath salts *shudder* BUT.. Here is the size comparison:
