Ok...I love seeing updates on everyone else's'so T's...so I figured I'd contribute as well! Hopefully, the pics are getting better...and will continue to improve. I intend to also have a few vids whenever I can manage to handle both the camera, and feed a T at the same time. Still a work in progress, I'm afraid. :rolleyes:

This is from tonight's feeding session. Man, I freakin' LOVE this hobby and my little bugs. So glad I discovered T's and this forum! Enjoy...

Well done, they're a lovely bunch. I find them hard to get good pics of.

Channeling Britney Spears, I say, "Oops, I did it again!" lol... Went to the LPS & bought a 4 y.o. 3" female Ceratogyrus darlingi (rear-horned baboon) & a 7-legged, 3.5-4" H. lividum (cobalt blue), suspect female in need of a molt. Maybe male, but ventral...as unreliable as it is...looks female. We'll see. It lost a rear leg last fall, but gets around well enough. I'm sure it'll regrow another one. If it's a male, I'll be looking to loan him out for mating once he's mature. :) For the price of a few slings. ;-)

Ok...cool thing to note about the C. darlingi....she's seriously handleable. The lady at the pet store (also owns T's) SHOWED me & handled her, even passed her to another person. :-o I was aghast...lol! She said she'd never held a baboon before & probably never will again. (Right?!). And she said the guy who raised her from a sling handled her all the time... So she was "tame." (Riiiigggghhhhht...sure she is.) I said that I don't plan on handling her ever. haha! The T may be "ok" with being handled but I actually SAW it stridulating. It was not happy -- whether it bites, or not.

So...lucky little T gets to be left alone now...no more handling!! At least she's incredibly easy to rehouse... ;-)

Yeah, got each of them for $45! Was sooooo happy...and still am.:D

I'm out of town right now, away from my T's, and I'm actually really missing them...haha! Such is the way of the T addict. :rolleyes:
