Finally my new Ts have arrived......Update.

[Enn49]

..... and they're all fit and healthy.

I was really worried about them as it was 10 days since they were dispatched but they were packed in a padded envelope, in a polystyrene box with plenty of paper packing, cotton wool, foil and a foam sheet.

Inside the box

Now the Ts

Brachypelma emilia, Chiquito. The only full sized T in the bunch


Heterothele villosella, Zengi


Phlogiellus sp. Koh Samui, Ta Nim. This one made 2 bids for freedom so I wasn't risking lifting the lid for a photo.


Phlogiellus sp. Khao Lak, Phen.


And a freebie as yet unnamed, a Phlogiellus sp. Thailand

 

[Nicolas C]

Hurrah! Great news, contrats + enjoy!

 

[Enn49]

@Nicolas C Thank you. It was such a relief to see them all fit and lively.

The little Phlogiellus sp. Thailand is now named Sayam

 

[MassExodus]

Great news, congrats Enn I can just imagine how stressful it is every time you order... 10 days.. abominable. Glad it worked out

 

[Kymura]

So happy they arrived alive and well

Thank you both. The first time I ordered from Poland they only took 3 days but the time seems to be getting longer and I really was expecting some DOAs. I almost cried with relief when I saw them all moving.

 

[Wayne harper]

Wow they look cool. I've been keeping my fingers crossed you would get them safely.

 

[Enn49]

I've just looked at the Polish tracking system (UK one doesn't track) and they left Poland on the 1st but didn't arrive at the Heathrow WDC until the 8th so where they were in between is anyone's guess.

On vacation in Spain Glad you got them alive and well!!

Apparently it's catching. My 4" Phormictopus sp green female is stuck in transit. I'm just glad she's a Phormictopus..they seem tough as roaches..but yeah, now I'm stressing...carrier has a nationwide issue due to heavy storms at the Memphis hub..

 

[Enn49]

@MassExodus Oh no!!! At least you know where she is, I only got the tracking number when they arrived here so I had no idea where they were or even if they had been dispatched..

Yeah they're getting insane amounts of rain down there. I got a call this morning from one of our computer parts vendors letting us know the order was delayed from those storms. Hope your T(s) arrive alive and well.... and dry

 

[MassExodus]

Fed ex just pulled up. They were just late and the tracking wasn't updated She looks gorgeous...I can't describe it, I love her...I've already changed my will and I'm writing bad checks to please her..

 

[Enn49]

@MassExodus I'm so glad she's arrived safely and you're obviously very happy with her .

 

[Kymura]

yeah, weather is bad down that way, just got ahold of one of my 'adopted' kids due to the flooding.

 

[Enn49]

All 5 little ones have eaten, 1 has burrowed, 2 have webbed like mad, 1 has both burrowed and webbed and the B. emilia has done neither .

 

[Kymura]

So happy for you enn, love getting new babies

 

[Enn49]

Heterothele villosella, Zengi. Someone's been busy, not only digging but quite a lot of webbing




Phlogiellus sp. Khao Lak, Phen. I'm going down, down


Phlogiellus sp. Thailand, Sayam. Looks like someone's moulted today


Brachypelma emilia, Chiquito. Typical Brachy, just chilling


Phlogiellus sp. Koh Samui, Ta Nim

Your freebie looks like it's molting...

 

[Enn49]

Yes, it did. the last lot of photos shows it with its moult.

They're all doing well although most have burrowed now, 2 have attached web to their lids so when I open the container their cork bark lifts too.
