| Ok tarantula boffins... what's this?    Thai Zebra - Haplopelma Albostriatum - 1.5"  Tanzanian Huntsman - Heteropoda sp.  Others are too tiny to take pics of under artificial light. will try in daylight with the macro when I can... they're about 5mm big lol |

| My best guess for the tarantula would be H. huwenum but I'm no expert. Awesome find if that is what it is. I love the huntsman! Gorgeous little spider. |

| we bought this one from colin (BTS) we need to get her a male she is producing infertile egg sacks.
sweet jar, bit of forest bed in bottom and some plastic leaves. will be happy in that hun
As for the earth tiger (also off colin lol) it looks like a gigantic o. aureotibialis. she is really big, like stretched out i'd say somewhere between 7-8" leg span. She hasn't burrowed, just made loads of webs on the surface. i love the orange sheen to the legs, only really shows when you use flash photography |
