Rehoused Pterinochilus Murinus NCF

Hi guys,

Thought I'd let you know I have just rehoused my juvie P.Murinus NCF with ease
To find that it has moulted and the moult aint in great condition as it was attached to its webbing.. bits of it came off damn
Anyways heres a pic to show the size anyways its pretty big and was quite docile now its acting a little nasty with me lol..




Regards,

Peter.

lol, "A lil nasty" def sounds like a P Murinus, missus wont let me have any baboons or ornamentals now because of that reason :-(

Get some Crawshayi, easiest things in the world to stash.

Joy of Joys , I've got to rehouse one of mine later today , once the aquarium sealant has cured .

Haha, thats alot bigger than mine mate. mines 3inch at the ax, but REALLY fast, dont look forward to rehousing mine, but then again, its in a 12x6x6 now,so hopefully thats not for a while :lol2:

Don't be worried about rehousing stuff because that's when you make mistakes. Just be prepared with a big bottle with the bottom cut off and a piece of card for if it does make a run for it and stay calm .

Coolcool

I don't think its the escaping that most people would be worried about, more the getting a nice tag off it.

I must say though, I think a lot of people demonise this sp unfairly.

I think alot of arachnids are demonised for there bites and stings but what you have to remember is if you are in good health and don't panic you will be ok. I recently read about Death Stalker scorpions venom being dependant on the weight/size of the unfortunate person.

Aye they are indeed made out alot worse than what they are..

Although I have received a bite from this example which wasen't pleasant I'm feeling better a few days later.
Ironically I rehouse the spider fine and when I was changing its water when it was in its burrow it got me

Peter.

I would be ok then, my butt would save me

I knew there was an advantage to carrying a few extra pounds

First time my parents realised I had t's was when a juve red knee got out and ended up on the landing, that was fun

Used to tell them I had cham eggs in the tubs
