Couple more T's

[Drizzt80]

Well, being able to snap a couple of pics of my T's earlier this week prompted me to get brave. I dove into my Green Bottle Blue's (GBB) cage to clean out some dead cricket shells and decided to move around his cork bark to get him in a good position for pictures. I think it was fat and sassy from feeding yesterday that it didn't want to spaz out and sprint . . . Yes! I was safe!

Here's the pics:

Just for comparison, here's what it looked like in August when I got it:

That adventure was successful, so I decided to get into the Tiger Rumps cage as well. Did some cleaning, bumped a tarantula around to get it out in the open . . .and voila:

As much as I want to get a recent pic of my OBT (Orange Bitey Thing), I am NOT anticipating messing with his home anytime soon . . . Here was arrival day:

I know he's shed at least twice since August, so should be looking really spectacular. They are just so darn fast that I don't dare mess with this one. I think he quite literally caught the first dead cricket I dropped in yesterday in mid air . . .

Thanks for looking!

PS. The pictures are misleading in that the first two are only about 1.5" in size! The GBB will get a lot more blue/green in the legs and thorax area and the abdomen will lose much of the markings and gain redder fuller thicker hair . . . dang, that sounded like a hair product commercial . . .
