I usually use longer tongs, but they were in the dish washer at the time. I had just watched the BHB trailer and was going to just hold the tails with my hand but decided not to. I guess it didn't matter.
Thanks Nick. I should definitely get some pastel and mojo eggs this year. I popped sperm plugs on the spider, but he's still kind of small and hasn't locked yet. I'm hoping he does soon or I'll be forced to give his girl over to my pastel. I'd much rather hatch some spiders, cause if I don't I'll be forced to buy a female spider from Tim Bailey, and that would suck.Next season is going to be great! I should have a female albino and het, female cinny, female pastels, more normals and a male lesser all ready to go by then, plus whatever I buy this year. Right now I'm just focusing on getting and hatching some eggs this season though.
