    Okay, so this turned out to be a forum...referring to Ken.
    Link 1
    This turned out to be an "info website", what a waste of my time lol. With Ken listed as a trusted person.
    Link 2
    "Retail sales now shut down" or something on this one. I believe this one also referenced Ken for all retail sales, maybe it didn't I cba to go check for a third time lol.
    Link 3
    "No live sales" on the home page...
    Link 4

    The others didn't have GBB listed under GBB, Greenbottle Blue, Green Bottle Blue, or the scientific name C. cyaneopubescens or spelled out. ;0

    Looking over PetCenterUSA now next though.

    I'd order from pet center usa. Get a 3/4" GBB for $35 plus its gunna be $30-35 for shipping. But since you spent $25 you'll get a free B. vagans too. :gj:

    http://petcenter.info/petcenterstore...ort=20a&page=4

    Don't forget to add the freebie vagans to your cart too! ;)

    It says $100 or more for a free B. vagans. :(

    I'm well on my way to 100! :p

    Funny story: Yesterday i check my phone on break at work. My brother texted me a pic of a spider he caught at home. "I got one one of your plastic vials and cupped it like you do. You should feed it or breed it to the other house spider you had" He's supposed to be "afraid" of spiders, what's he doing capturing them for me haha?!

    Both my new additions ate. The pulchra was pretty gentle like i'd expect and the meridionalis was a beast lol. I gave the the tiny vagans two dubia legs. I'm hoping it finds them and eats a little. My OBT and GBB are refusing food so i'm expecting a molt from both of them soon too. I can't wait for the pulchra and meridionalis to molt, i'll be able to upgrade both of their enclosures. The merid. will be going into one of those bigger cubes i bought so it can make a really sweet burrow. I may be able to sex it after it molts too because right now its about the size of my vagans. :gj:

    I would guess any of them could eat the smaller ones.

    Talked to Damon and getting a little something extra with my irminia. Stay tuned :)
    And my Pumpkin Patch should be here tomorrow. Someone had posted some mature males. Almost the same size as a large Fishing spider. Really excited about these.

    What a day!!!! transfered 10 3 to 4 inch P. irminias, plus shipped one to Rich with something a little extra in the box. (i'll let him tell ya'll about that) Those bad boys are fast! and the ones who didn't teleport to the other side stood there ground and fought with the transfer stick! they have an amazing threat display! I had one hold a threat posture for 2 full minutes lol. Then FedEx decided not to show up with my package from Rich. They said no one was home to recieve it! The wife is not there most popular customer right now. needless to say the driver decided to turn around and come back with my babies. 25 curly hair babies, 26 red rump babies, 2 straight horned baboons, and 2 ghost ornamentals are now transfered in there new homes. My who's your daddy bp clutch pipped yesterday morning and so far only one is out of the egg. i've gotta stop checking them every 5 minutes lol. I know who the daddy is though cause the first one out is a pastave! looks like another pastave, 1 mojave, 1 pastel, and 1 normal im pretty happy with the odds for my little girls first clutch. I wont know for sure until I can get a better look at them. i'll let ya'll know what they are.

    Wow! You had 10 irminias? And i know how ya feel about the transfer of those guys....on a,smaller scale, of course. Tigra is about 2.5-3", and when i first brought her home n transferred her to her new cubicle, she was halfway across the room before i could grab her with a catch cup!

    haha I'm pretty sure I was lucky because I didnt need the catch cup once. I actually have 11 irminias now. only nine that size though. I have two 1 inch slings that I got a month or two ago. I did all of my transfers in a clear tote with the walls lightly misted to help slow them down when they do take off. I just drop the lid and they cant go to far that way. the two hardest transfers of the day was the irminia I packed for Rich and one of the pederseni I got from Rich. That little goober shot out of the paper towel like a bat outta hell! came up the tweezers on my arm and down the front of my shirt before I realized he was on the move. the wife grabbed his new cup and stuck it in front of him and he never missed a step just straight into his new home and she snapped the lid on him before he made it up the other side.
    Ive got some errands to run this morning then i'll snap some of my famously horrid cell phone pics for ya'll. (I gotta get a camera!)
