B. vagans....

My little B. vagans I got from Shelby a while back is in heavy premolt, little thing is black as can be so it shouldnt be too much longer now. It's last molt was on May 26 so its due.
Also, I suspect my 4 H. macs may all be in premolt as I havent seen any of them for about a week now, plus the crix I put in for them have not been ate in 24 hours so Im going to pull the crix out. Anxious to see their new suits when they do molt.

Well rack up another molt to the B. vagans, I just checked in on it after I made my previous post and sure enough it had molted! I can see some long new legs behind the old exuvium through the side of its cube. Once it hardens up it might be time to re-house it. Geez, I need o go get a bigger cube from hobby lobby now...lol.

Pictures?!

mine are 1" and doing great! they are fun, and cute to watch try to kick at their size

Actually, my wife got a new digital cam Wed. evening, but it went back to the store because it just would not focus right and when it did focus the pics always came out yellow looking. We have decided to wait until we can afford a better model., so...pics are going to be slow in coming Im afraid.

I think B vagans is the fastest growing Brachypelma

I have just bought a vagans,
it is about 2 inches in size and although most of the time really docile
if you mess with her house she lets you know she isnt impressed......

Mine still hasnt come out of its litle tunnel system yet to see what kind of size it has gained. Ive gotten fleeting glimpses of it here and there. Gonna have to rehouse it, im just waiting to make sure its hardened up and want it to eat at least once before rehousing.
