Would you consider doing a comprehensive video on how you made them, decor etc on YouTube?Also, I'm going to excite your addiction further by injecting Pamphobeteous into the conversation.P sp machala to be exact. They are a moist spider that eats like a trash compacter, is gorgeous & grows like a weed.[ATTACH=full]33507[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]33508[/ATTACH]Just be sure to keep half the cage moist mostly by applying it to the frog moss as well as half the floor space in the cage.  Keep a drier side just a little damp. There should be a dry place where they can dry the feet a little. Mine will sometimes spend some time in the drier areas & dominates the entire cage.A big hide, large water dish and frog moss will make it happy. I'd say recommend peat as a substitute because it's more mold resistant.When young, they have an X-mas tree pattern, then the other colors come in.  They are easy to keep as long as you stay on top of the moisture.You will always be able to randomly inject Pamphobeteous into any conversation. There are quite a few species to choose from.  Get a sling and grow with the spider.</blockquote>
