Chromatopelma cyaneopubescens (Green Bottle Blue) I think it’s safe to say she’s gravid. She’s been doing a lot of excavating recently so I’m thinking she’s gonna make an egg sac soon. Hope it’s a good, healthy, sac. 🤓👍🏼🕷 #tarantula_haven #tarantula #tarantulas #tarantulasofig #tarantulasofinstagram #tarantulasoftheworld #chromatopelmacyaneopubescens https://www.instagram.com/p/CHD69WjgeMi/?igshid=pa3j1oqki18b

Tapinauchenius cupreus (Violet Tree Spider) After much confusion I’m pretty sure that this is T. cupreus. She was given to me and she had the common name. I was confused and thought she was T. violaceus but I realized that they share a similar common name. Tapinauchenius cupreus is commonly known as the Violet Tree Spider whereas the Tapinauchenius violaceus is commonly known as the Purple Tree Spider. Both look very similar except the T. violaceus is a deeper purple and the T. cupreus has more of a greenish coloration on the carapace and develops a lighter purple on the abdomen and legs. I have to research more on both species. 😕 #tarantula_haven #tarantula #tarantulas #tarantulasofig #tarantulasofinstagram #tarantulasoftheworld #tapinauchenius #tapinaucheniuscupreus https://www.instagram.com/p/CHB9QNmMY28/?igshid=1dubfewo84bi6

MM Homoeomma chilensis (Chilean Flame) Sent this little boy out to stud. Took 3 years to maturity. It was tough to say goodbye but we need more of these in the hobby. 😢 #tarantula_haven #tarantula #tarantulas #tarantulasofig #tarantulasofinstagram #tarantulasoftheworld #homoeomma #homoeommachilensis https://www.instagram.com/p/CG_PLjAM4L8/?igshid=1ayv7g5ggwryy

Poecilotheria rufilata (Red Slate Ornamental) Finally caught her sitting on her cork bark. Such a beautiful but shy species. 🤓👍🏼 #tarantula_haven #tarantula #tarantulas #tarantulasofig #tarantulasofinstagram #tarantulasoftheworld #poecilotheria #poecilotheriarufilata https://www.instagram.com/p/CG-G6_IMXRG/?igshid=1j1hoe5gb5f36

Grammostola iheringi (Entre Rios Tarantula) Freshly molted G. iheringi! I’ve never kept this species before and this is the first time its molted since I got it. Stunning colors and so leggy! 😍 #tarantula_haven #tarantula #tarantulas #tarantulasofig #tarantulasofinstagram #tarantulasoftheworld #grammostola #grammostolaiheringi https://www.instagram.com/p/CG3qNf0Mgvj/?igshid=htcjtkkb5sg1

Poecilotheria regalis (Indian Ornamental) Boy I haven’t seen her out since I paired her. Pretty sure the male was too old but she went through the motions as if she was going to make an egg sac. She’s finally starting to act normal again but man she’s thicc! I’m sure she’ll probably molt soon. 🤓🕷 #tarantula_haven #tarantula #tarantulas #tarantulasofig #tarantulasofinstagram #tarantulasoftheworld #poecilotheria #poecilotheriaregalis https://www.instagram.com/p/CGxRuwOs7T7/?igshid=1s0afp6sxxddp

Psalmopoeus cambridgei (Trinidad Chevron) It’s really cool to watch the behavior of my tarantulas. This little juvenile P. cambridgei made itself a nice little nest behind a piece of cork bark. It was cool to watch it gather leaf litter to weave into the web curtains that it made. #tarantula_haven #tarantula #tarantulas #tarantulasofig #tarantulasofinstagram #tarantulasoftheworld #psalmopoeus #psalmopoeuscambridgei https://www.instagram.com/p/CGsiqEvsP9F/?igshid=xys0hbnjb6dr

Augacephalus ezendami (Mozambique Golden Baboon) A little rare treat. Supposedly one of the fastest tarantulas in the hobby. This one just likes to chill by the burrow and wait for prey. Most of the time I only see feet sticking out but today it felt like sitting on top and posing for me. 🤓👍🏼 #tarantula_haven #tarantula #tarantulas #tarantulasofig #tarantulasofinstagram #tarantulasoftheworld #augacephalus #augacephalusezendami https://www.instagram.com/p/CGsK5hQsZ5f/?igshid=x1jg3wy5q81v

Poecilotheria regalis (Indian Ornamental) Saying goodbye to this old boy. December would have been 3 years since he matured! I expected him to pass a long time ago but he just kept going. Awesome little guy. 😔 #tarantula_haven #tarantula #tarantulas #tarantulasofig #tarantulasofinstagram #tarantulasoftheworld #poecilotheria #poecilotheriaregalis https://www.instagram.com/p/CGqyBBHM-8T/?igshid=7vub5q21738l

Little improvements to the Tarantula Haven. I swapped out ten multi-colored lights for some LED puck lights. No more purplish tint to the pictures of my T’s on this rack. #tarantula_haven https://www.instagram.com/p/CGoLU-6MKSW/?igshid=1pzwyw2b3l3iu

Aphonopelma seemanni (Stripe Knee Tarantula) Sometimes that’s all I need to know it’s alright. Beautiful girl. She’s letting me know she’s hungry. 🤓👍🏼🕷 #tarantula_haven #tarantula #tarantulasofinstagram #tarantulasofig #tarantulasoftheworld #aphonopelma #aphonopelmaseemanni https://www.instagram.com/p/CGnL1IhMFXp/?igshid=zf8kov6m2aco
