LOL Colin...yup I know the feeling, tubs tubs everywhere and still room for more spids!
I didn't manage to find myself a B.Baumgarteni, or an Annitha...but I did get a lot of hairy legged beauties...there's lovely!

Ooooh...and when you get time....would you share some pics of the Pokie colony? I'm fascinated by what others can achieve...even if I'm the *colony of one* type! LOL

[Colin D Wilson]

At risk of repeating myself from posting in the mentioned thread...What can I say, other than *awesome*! I'll keep my eyes peeled for further photos.

Louise and Yvonne No I have only named 2 so far.
I got, an E olivacia and a C marshalli from my loverly son for xmas, so far the marshalli is Martha.
I bought an E olivacia, a C bechuanicus, Becky, from Peloquin, and an H maculata from under Oli's nose.

I was given, a mated Grammy rcf, thanks Char and Stew, a Yamia, thanks Sonny, 2 A ioduis, thanks Toran.

Think thats all, not a massive haul but all good stuff

i named my 10 V. spinigerus scorplings 1 through 10! how's that for naming schemes?

i doubt i can list all i got...but i'll give it a go. forgive the lack of some scientific names, as i've just sat down and don't want to get back up to look

2 A. geniculata slings
2 N. coloratovillosum slings
2 A. iodius slings (what do you mean, they were overpriced, Toren? thanks man!)
2 Psalmopoeus cambridgei slings (thanks so much Mary!)
1 C. fasciatum juvey i think, as it's not tiny, and i know they don't grow huge
1 gorgeous adult C. crawshayi (thanks Jay and Sonny! great deal, and i'm really pleased with her)
1 gorgeous young firebelly toad (thanks Oli! he's settling in just fine)
2 H spinnifer scorpions, male and positively gravid female
2 O. whalbergi young scorpions
1 Arizona black headed centipede
1 Chilean giant blue centipede

think that's close to accurate!
was a good day, but as much as i love my purchases, the best thing was meeting new people and seeing people i knew again!

[Louise~Nichols]

*waves to Kevin* Hiya! I remember you now, yup, nice to meet you too!

James LOL...that's very original naming! But like you said...it's not easy to tell differences other than maybe a wonky leg!
The people really made the day for me too, my purchases were an added bonus...you certainly did well with your retail therapy! But that toad...awwwww...he was just so lovely. I still fancy one of those feisty rainbow crabs too...lol...a really crabby one!
