New spider and normal from ScottNBecky...

[AK907]

Picked up a female spider ball, a female normal ball, a 5 tub rat rack and a baby male hairless dumbo rat from ScottNBecky.

Note: Scott, if you read this, I wasn't aware that the snow corn and pueblan milk were part of your arrangements with my wife. I will gladly drive them out to you on my next day off or whenever is convenient for yall. My bad. I will throw in another corn too if you'd like for this misunderstanding.

Female spider...


Female normal. She is feisty! I have a feeling I'm gunna finally get tagged by a ball python very soon...


Rat rack...


Male hairless dumbo rat...

Yup, the rack was by ScottNBecky. The balls and rat were bred by them as well.

Oh yeah, I've been lit up by a lot bigger than balls. One of my worst was an adult male dumeril and that didn't even need a band-aid. I get nailed on a regular basis by my amazon tree boas and they are many times bigger than this little girl. I've just been waiting to join the ball python bite club.

I can measure it for ya. First thing is first, ya gotta find the tubs, which are non-existent around our parts, hence why we jumped on thier offer from Scott to build us a rack in trade. After you find them, building a rack around them should be fairly straight forward. Check Lowe's or Home Depot. They will know them as cement mixing tubs more than likely. Find nice smooth tubs. Nothing they can chew on. If you find the tubs, I can help ya build it and I'm sure there are many others here who will chime in and give thier advice too. Let us know.

If you lived closer I would gladly build ya one for the cost of parts. I love building stuff, I just rarely get the oppourtunity.

Love the spider!

Thanks. I can't wait til she is bigger! I've got a very handsome pastel to breed her to. Who knows what else I will have by then too. So far she is very sweet too, not a grump like the normal. I haven't really handled them much since we got them, mainly just getting them set up in thier new tubs. We'll give them a few days to settle in before we handle them much.

Most are similar, but even a fraction of an inch makes a difference when building a rack.

Last night was feeding night. I had plenty of rat fuzzies defrosted for our colubrids and atbs so I figured I'd try and offer one to the new babies. The normal turned her nose up at f/t, but I understand the move has been stressful and I don't believe she is accustomed to f/t. I'll give her a few to settle in. The spider on the otherhand... YIKES!!! I'm glad I had tongs! I barely even got it within striking range and she was all over it like white on rice on a paper plate in a snow storm!
