Some off you may remember me buying Ember, a Grammostola rosea, off eBay just over 3 years ago. it has turned out to be quite a character with a habit of tipping its water bowl on its side and rolling it around its container.
Ember has grown steadily although slowly and today I decided it was time to move it to a bigger home. I'll be interested to see if it tries playing with the larger water bowl :D:rolleyes:

Lots of space to play in

Aren't I cute?

Sun bathing while the sun catches the container for a little while in the afternoons.

Shes a beautiful T-and certainly cute:D I never thought you could buy Ts from Ebay...although I've never looked for one on there?...:)

Thank you :)
I've bought a few from eBay since then, there are a few reliable sellers on there and they get round the eBay rules by selling the containers with the Ts.

Well I will certainly have a look :) I know you can buy other inverts on Ebay but even they get advertised as livefood-like you said it must be down to the rules...

I gave my adult female rosea to a friends kid a few years ago. I miss her terribly. She's doing well but I'm thinking of picking up another WC female from a chain store again. I should have kept her, she was very docile and gave me a healthy sac. Then she ate the next one

I have also seen the spiderlings listed as 'live food' to get round Ebay rules. Although I think they may have put a stop to that now?
