I spotted a T on @Phil's list that I fancied and thought why not get another that I'd had 2 MMs and hope for a female then Phil said did I not fancy the dwarf so that came too.

My original choice was the Coremiocnemis sp. "blue" , Korbu. This one calmly walked from the container it came I into it's new home.

Then I chose another Omothymus schioedtei, Mulu, which is so tiny that it is staying in the vial it came in with an added piece of cork. I so hope that 3rd time lucky I've got a female, much as I have loved my 2 green men.

I just can't resist a dwarf so along came Danao, a Orphnaecus sp cebu small

so glad all arrived safe and well. been a chilly last 24hours so extra wrapping and insulation within the box was order of the day to get the most out of the heat pack. Enjoy your new additions hun x

Yes, I was impressed with the extra insulation.

I just couldn't risk it without the extra insulation. even had the box of packing nuggets warming on the radiator before the spiders went in just before posting. Only the best for the little babies. :)

It surprised me when I saw it this morning, it's amazing how much they can achieve in a short time. Yes, there is definitely a moult coming soon. The tiny schioedtei has vanished under the cork bark I put in.

The dwarf species you have are indeed cool.

Now you gotta get a bigger species as a sling!!

At this point, I'll randomly introduce Pamphobeteous.

The Christmas tree pattern they have as a sling is amazing.
