My new additions.

[Gavin van den Berg]

So I received my new T's today and though I'd share a few pictures.
I'm going to rehouse the GBB so it is only in the tub temporarily.

I was told a very interesting and sad story about the GBB and it's origin when receiving the GBB this morning.

The previous owner of the T had a very unfortunate event where his whole T shelf fell and he lost a big portion of his T's with the fall. The mother of my new GBB was involved in the accident and unfortunately did not make it.

Apparently this GBB is the only surviving offspring of the mother as well. So it will be my mission to look after this T with everything I have and to ensure that it grows up to be mature and live out it's life.

It will go into it's new home as soon as possible.

Okay, Okay!!! I have to get me a GBB . Everybody is doing it so there must be something very special about this T . Nice additions and a great collection you have going there.

 

[Sabeth]

Congrats! I never got a GBB...probably would have if I'd kept going.

 

[Gavin van den Berg]

Thank you Denny Dee / Sabeth.

I've got the GBB in it's new enclosure and will upload some pictures soon.

Great collection you have going as well Denny. Would love to have a C. Darlingi but unfortunately it's illegal to keep them in SA without a permit.

Don't you have any T's anymore Sabeth? What made you stop collecting?

 

[Sabeth]

I have a G. rosea that I'll be sending to a friend soon, and a B. smithi that my brother's keeping. I'm leaving home soon and they can't come with me.

 

[Gavin van den Berg]

I see. That sucks Sabeth. Hopefully you'll be able to get some T's again sometime. Hopefully you'll still be here on the forum with us all.

Some pics of the GBB in it's new home...
