    Spider male!
    Here he is;thanks a Billion, Ed Clark! This boy arrived in prime condition this morning, and I honestly need to say that Ed did the best packing job that I have ever had an animal arrive in.. a nice thick Styrofoam box (almost like a small cooler!) and heatpacks that are still warm as I type this hours later.. I took a few shots of this guy before letting him alone to acclimate; the thing that is most striking is his head; it is so little and awesomely marked compared to normal heads!
    He is actually beginning a shed now; got it off of his head so far. I am eager to see how he brightens up afterward. :D

    Re: Spider male!
    lol; I have worked hard to get this. Originally we considered him a christmas gift from Mark to me, but I guess we now figure we bought him for ourselves as a reward for all of the backbreaking work we have been doing lately. He's been working 16 hour days with an hourlong-both-ways drive to the city.. I have been picking up extra hours at work, until my head is basically falling off my neck from exhaustion staring at my computer.. yikes!
    Luck had nothing to do with this or anything; seriously, if you want something like this, hard work will pay off in the end! You'll get one one day, I am sure!

    Gin that is a smoker of a spider. I love the reduced pattern. and the white speckling that comes on up into his body. Ed great job! I enjoyed working with you also your making something of a name for yourself. People if you want to work with a great guy with out stands critters Ed Clark is one of few I'd say that about. Again Gin You got agreat looking snake there. Spiders are one of my favorites.

    Congrats Jen on that great looking Spider. Hopefully that guy will breed up a storm for you. Sending you luck for a bunch of Pastel females from this season to raise up for that good looking guy.
