This is JohnJack. He is obviously not a T, but he is the King of the Exotic Pet Land here in our bedroom. He spends his life buried in the dirt, only coming out for the occasional cricket and a little swim in his water bowl. So, being that his life is definitely not interesting enough to document, this will be one of the few times you will see him here.

L. Violaceopes
We got her at the T.A.R.A.S. show from Avery Exotics on Saturday, May 1, 2010. I had actually ordered a Psalmopoeus Pulcher, but the order got messed up and I had to make a quick decision at the show for a replacement. So here we are. Not an easy one to get photos of, as she is dark grey and a bit jumpy.
I'll keep an eye out to get my hands on a P. Pulcher eventually but this will be a cool T to have just as well.
G. Pulchra
Purchased from Tank-a-Lot in Calgary.
This little one was purchased at the same time as our A. Metallica. She has been refusing to eat for a couple weeks so hopefully she is almost ready to molt. She is very gentle and easy to handle as you can see.
E. Murinus
She is pretty haggard and has not molted since we got her. We're patiently awaiting a molt but it might be a while, as she is quite large.
She is from Petland, where they were likely not taking proper care of her (surprise).
E. Cyanognathus
She is very tiny, as you can see. We got her on Saturday May 1, 2010, from Avery Exotics at the T.A.R.A.S. show.
B. Albopilosum
Purchased from Tanks-a-Lot, probably about a month and a half ago.
Has had one molt so far but I don't have any before- molt pictures.
She has been a busy little T building herself quite a network of tunnels in her container.
A. Metallica
"Captain Little"
Also from Tanks-a-Lot.
Picture 1: Before first molt, when we first got her.
Picture 2 & 3: May 3, 2010 (after first molt). Not great pictures because she had a big mess of webs and I haven't acquired a clear pill bottle for her yet.
