  • Meet my tarantula family

    Hi, I've posted a couple of times, but haven't shared photos of my 5 Ts. My first 3 arrived in May. Click on thumbnails for bigger picture.

    Here's Consuela; she's a B. emilia juvenile, about 2.5 inches. She's not shy, eats and grooms in front of me. She's working on a cricket in this picture.


    Here's Zelda, my 3/4 inch G. pulchra sling. She's totally ignoring a nice juicy pre-killed cricket. Shortly after this photo, she made some burrows and is now hanging out underground. I think she's getting ready to molt.


    Here's Bugatti, my 3/4 inch P. irminia. After I had him for a week, he built a lovely tube web and disappeared from sight for a month. A few days ago I found his molt hanging on the outside of his tube web. I can't imagine how he managed to drag it up to the top of the tube web. I know he's OK because I can see down the tube web with a flashlight and he's moving around.



    Then last week I got 2 more Ts; here's my P. scrofa juvenile, She's just under 3 inches. She's real active and eats crickets and B. dubias with gusto. Her name is Primrose Thumb Drum.


    And lastly, my 1 inch sling Cyriocosmus ritae; she is beautiful and lively and a great hunter. Crickets or B. dubias, she doesn't care, she'll jump on anything. She even pounces on drops of water when I fill her water dish. Her name is Lovely RIta Meter Maid, but she permits me to call her Lovely RIta. She's very vain; she grooms more than any of my other Ts.


    So that's my T family, hope you enjoyed the show.
