Enn's bunch

[Enn49]

Having seen the size of my Heteroscodra maculata, Kofi's legs yesterday I decide it was time to rehouse. The move was relatively easy although it did make a bid for freedom, not getting far as the whole procedure was inside an ExoTerra viv. Kofi is around 1" dls and beginning to show adult patterns.

Kofi's new home


It seems to have chosen its new hidey hole in a crack in the side of the cork bark

love how shes backed up in there, all snug, for some reason she looks perfectly smug ^^

It's got its butt sticking out now

Omothymus schioedtei (formerly Cyriopagopus schioedtei), Tigger, now more often referred to as the Green Man


Yesterday seemed to be the day for Ts showing off their bellies

Trip, my P. metallica


Kofi, the H. maculata, seems to have settled into its new container


Vita, the Hapalopus sp Colombia klein.


Mali, my Python Regius, enjoying tea last night. Alright I know he's not a T but he's still part of Enn's bunch

I rehoused Kutari, my Tapinauchenius violaceus, today.

Its new home


The little monkey tried to make a run for freedom up my arm but I managed to block its escape with my other hand and it turned a ran straight into the new container, boy are they fast

My 2 Nhandu chromatus have stayed buried away for almost all of the 11 months that I've had them until a couple of weeks ago Luzia (left) began to show itself and now spends most of the time in view but Zingu (right) has only begun showing itself over the last couple of days and still runs to ground at the slightest disturbance. Luzia spent most of today filling its water bowl with substrate but I wanted to grab a photo of them both before cleaning it out.


The next 2 are in 2" dia vials to give you an idea of their size

Euathlus sp Red, Chila. It's a year since sym first got this tiny mite and it's barely grown in that time although it eats well.


Grammostola rosea, Ember

 

[RedCapTrio]

Wow, Chila must be just a fourth of an inch. That is some dwarf T. Here in the tropics, the temps and humidity do affect growth pretty much as their growth rates are faster relatively.

Yes, that's all it is, hard to believe it's a year old. I always knew they were slow growers but at least it's active and eats well. Apparently it last moulted around Christmas so I'm hoping for a moult soon to see how much it grows.

My god...I'd heard stories about how slow they grow, but that's Aphonopelma slow..

Poecilotheria metallica - Trip


Stromatopelma calceatum - Peanut. This is a very rare sighting


I rehoused my 2 LPs today as I found some boxes that are clearer than the Really Useful boxes that they were in so I now have chance to see them. I've been dreading the move but they both cooperated and made it a simple job.

One of the new boxes


Lasiodora parahybana - Mole


Lasiodora parahybana - Pip

 

[Enn49]

Psalmopoeus irminia, Falcon (MM)


Pterinochilus murinus Usambara, Zera. First sighting in over a month

Lasiodora parahybana - Mole, enjoying a spot of sun.


Omothymus schioedtei (formerly Cyriopagopus schioedtei), Tigger now an MM

 

[RedCapTrio]

Awwww, you have lots of MM now @Enn49 Time to spread some love?

 

[Enn49]

Only the 2 but no one over here seems to want them.

 

[RedCapTrio]

At least you're trying to find some, good luck then!

 

[Enn49]

Thanks, I've got a couple more places to try.

 

[Enn49]

I rehoused a couple more today as they had outgrown their old homes.

First was my Psalmopoeus reduncus, Coffee, who is not a happy girl although a few minutes after I took this pic she was webbing like mad


Coffee's new home


Next was Sable, my Lampropelma sp. Borneo Black, who made the move so easy by sitting still on her cork bark until inside her new home where with a gentle nudge, she walked off.


Sable's new home

 

[Enn49]

A couple more rehouses tonight, there should have been 3 but Zengi, the Heterothele villosella, decided to moult.

Brachypelma emilia, Chiquito


Grammostola rosea, Ember

 

[RedCapTrio]

Nice bigger enclosures all around. Thumbs up!

 

[Enn49]

Finally got Zengi, the Heterothele villosella, rehoused


I also rehoused Frio, the Avicularia laerta
