C.schioedtei, Tigger.


B. albopilosum, Tinto. This one is the smallest of my 3 curlies and has cleared a huge tunnel at the boyyom of its container leaving the water bowl hanging precariously.


C. elegans, Jumbie, one of my tiniest Ts.


P. sp. "Tiger", Arica.


P. murinus Usambra, Zera. I've seen more of her in the last couple of weeks than in almost a year.

Midnight, H. sp. "Midnight Blue" is always at the entrance to its burrow but at least today it is showing legs as usually all I see is its butt end.


Paria, H. sanguiniceps, is happy the sit at the entrance of its hide.


Cayenne, T. gigas, for once the right way up


Jumbie, C. elegans

Beck, C. fasciatus, has stayed above ground since I rehoused it which is great because I hadn't seen him much at all before

Evening sym. Yes, so am I. it's always there to see but usually either butt or a few lags and it's so difficult to get a pic as its hole is tight between the piece of bark and the side of the container.

I had an escapee tonight. My Phlogiellus sp. baeri, Data, is the one T I have that scares me, the only one that runs straight at me when I try to open the container. As it had completely buried its water bowl and everything else in there too, it was difficult to water so I have just been spraying the side of the tub. Tonight Data was settled at one side half buried so I decided to try to dig out the bowl, I'd just got it out when I saw a flash and away went Data at top speed. Fortunately I keep all the little ones tubs in an Exo Terra viv and Data had run to the back behind the others so I was able to shut the door and contain it. I'd been thinking for a while of moving it into a small Braplast box that I had, it has a lid hinged about a third of the way down so it would be easier to top the water up without lifting the whole lid. Leaving Data in the Exo, removing the cats from the room as all the other slings had to be moved out, I made the Braplast tub ready, complete with larger water bowl. By the time I was ready Data had calmed down a bit and was easy to catch and transfer to its new home. Phew!!!

Meanwhile it appears all this activity brought out quite a few nosey parkers so I got a few pics. Sadly none of Data.

Coco, the largest of my 3 B. albopilosum


Taal, O. sp "Blue Panay"


Copper, E. sp "red". This is such an active little T although it hasn't burrowed and rarely hides just spends its time scuttling around.

My O. diamantinensis, Culli, moulted in the early hours of yesterday morning and here is the first post moult photo.

OK...I forgot to tell you earlier that O. diamantinensis is also in the running for purchase soon! lol... And an Iridopelma sp. recife. I'm hopeless. :rolleyes: So, I suppose I'm not winding down on my acquisitions after all, now, am I? Ha!

Culli is amazingly GORGEOUS!! The colors remind me of the Caribbean. :)

By the way...nice list of T's you have there, lady! Love it! Love reading the names, too... :D

Thank you. Names are usually chosen with care as a connection to their country of origin. Culli is in fact short for Cullinan the famous Blue Diamond.

Good choice of new Ts, I hope you don't have to wait too long.

My new Orphnaecus sp "Blue Panay", Taal, has just moulted but I've not seen it yet. I've only had it 2 and a half weeks.

They are quick but it'll probably calm down once its settled down. I've just moved Culli up to medium crickets
