    new friends

    just received today from http://www.martingoss.co.uk:

    an Eresus albopictus juvenile
    two Bothriurius coriaceus
    two Bothriurius keyserlingi
    two Caraboctonus keyserlingi

    all ridiculously cute.

    Awwwww!! Congrats on your new kids, are they settling in well?
    As always...I've got everything crossed that all goes well for them & you.

    (I'm snatching 5 minutes *online time* with my laptop...socialising has been hectic whilst on my travels, I'll need a holiday to recover! lol)

      thanks!
      they're fine, but i need to get some deeper pots for them and a number of others!
      i'm really starting to get into the smaller scorpion species. they are so cute!
      these are feisty as well.
      the little ladybird(boy) spider is also really cute, with lovely markings.
      you probably already told me, but where are you travelling? is it holiday or work?
      hope you're having a good time regardless!
      the RCF's and previously dehydrated B auratums doing fine?

        They do sound sooooo adorable, well done! *hugs*

        Well...holiday or work? Good question...I guess it qualifies as neither...lol...I'm doing my Xmas present deliveries to family members further afield, as well as visiting friends; I must be out of practise, I'm exhausted already.
        Oooh yes, the babies are doing great thanks, the dehydrated B.Auratum are all looking amazing, 3 have now shed...and the RCF crew are bumbling about happily and being very cute.

              LOL...I'm out of practice at heavy duty socialising...I need a month of hermit type behaviour to recover! At least I finished delivering the goodies, I'm two days ahead of my schedule, so I'm back home and resting with my collection.
              As for the RCF gang...I'll sort you some photos for starters.

                thanks Andy!
                rehousing went fine, in fact i allowed at least one of each of the new scorps to walk on my hand today (they wanted out), and they aren't fierce at all.
                rehousing went just fine as a result. thank God for the local pound shop though!

                Louise, i'm exactly the same way as far as being social goes! takes alot out of ya lol. well done on bering ahead of schedule!
                looking forward to pics

                      i actually made it to the office Christmas party this week, so i've definitely earned some hermit time
                      just another 9 days i think!
                      holidayyyyy!

                        *faints in horror* Oooh James...that is intense socialising...and most definitely you deserve hermit-time in abundance! LOL
                        Nine days...heck, where did the year go? Ahhh...so I can post my specially prepared Xmas card to all my forum buddies into a thread somewhere, right?! (hehehe...me and my silly sense of humour have gotten the better of me again.)
