[QUOTE="Enn49, post: 113870, member: 3458"] All 4 had webbed profusely, all lived in a maze of tunnels and all are pretty fast so I thought I may have some fun.4 First up was [B]Ratta[/B], the Thrigmopoeus truculentus, who made things easy. I lifted out the web and plant and Ratta came too calmly walking out of the old webbing into its new home. [ATTACH=full]23066[/ATTACH] Next came [B]Han[/B], a Chilobrachys sp. Blue Vietnam, who made a small bid for freedom but was easily caught and cupped but elected to stay on the paper for long enough to grab a photo before it too walked into its new home [ATTACH=full]23070[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]23071[/ATTACH] Now came the fun. [B]Saan[/B], my Ceratogyrus darlingii, was not going to be disturbed and reared up in threat almost falling over backwards in its anger. At the 3rd attempt I managed to coax it into the catch cup but then it didn't want to come out. In the end I left it to make its own way out but then I had to fill its water bowl and it tried to escape again, almost getting a leg trapped when I put the lid back in place. [ATTACH=full]23072[/ATTACH] And still not looking happy [ATTACH=full]23073[/ATTACH] Lastly was [B]Tahm[/B], the Chilobrachys sp. Kaeng Krachan, who literally jumped from old to new container.[ATTACH=full]23074[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
