Yup to me or Matt. He kept opening it up more than I did. 
I'm still slightly nervous about the little thing, but I manage to swap him into a new container without mishap.

I had one your size and he had a bad molt and we got him past that, but then he tried to molt again, and didn't make it.
So watch him and keep a section of the substrate moist.
Congrats by the way they are great T's.
Thanks. I appreciate all the help I can get with this baby. I did mist container before I put Cookie in. Yup the my son named it.
It was so cool the way Cookie has adjusted the dirt. Dang, I'm a dork. I gotta go take another picture because I swear it looks different.

Congrats on getting past your own reservations about these rather fascinating critters. 
I'm not QUITE ready to hold the little baby yet, but maybe when it gets a bit bigger. I'm such a weenie.

You might bend, till you break cause its all you can take

I thought I'd also mention that Cookie has now had it's first meal! We had to leave before it would eat, but the cricket is toast.

Re: Okay it's finally a cold day in...
Neat new little addition! It actually took quite a bit for me to open this thread... I have always been terrified of spiders. I've been doing better since being on this site, but I think this is the first time I have *willingly* opened a thread about a T (blasted spider BPs....I always opened those "look at my new spider" thinking it's a snake. Nope, real spider! Talk about a freak out!)
Anyways, he's actually not too bad. I thought he was bigger until those last pictures. Congrats on the new little boy/girl crawly thing!

I just didn't want him to freak out and fly out of that little cup and go splat. 
Oh you can thank my son. (I think he has you to thank for his new video game)

That's how it started for me, and now I have my first little T. My mom is still in shock, since I always complained about hers as a kid.
