here's my little guy. he's about 4" now... at the size that i no longer feed him alone. he's very fiestey... he'll attack the walls and lid of his enclosure just cause you walk by LOL

he's eating one of his three silkworms i offered him for dinner today.



check out his kick butt webbing job!

and just for fun... let's add some more of my Ts:

so first i put these babies into the shower to give them a nice misting... and then i figured a photo shoot was in order. so my hubby kept them at bay and i snapped a few shots of some of our Ts.

first... our p. metallica. my hubby moved her cork so i could get a good shot of her. isn't she purdey!





and now a nice shot of my avic avic - she sits on top of her web most of the time... waiting for food to drop from the heavens LOL



and my avic versi - i love her web tunnel!



and last but not least... my n. chromatus - i think i should change her name to big butt!!!



all of my Ts are on silkworms now... and loving them. none of them are problem feeders at all. it took some of them a little while to accept silkworms as a prey item... but now they gobble them down as soon as they hit the enclosure. i love the fact that the silkies never both the T so if they are moulting and i don't notice... i dont have to try to get it out like you do with crickets.

Nice pictures. The only problem I've ever had with getting silkworms was feeding them all off

Are you interested in an N. chromatus immature male at all?

[Smulkin]

Man I LOVE those pokies! Mighty purdy metallica!

[Schlyne]

Oh well, either I will find a home for the little guy or I'll end up keeping him.
