Your welcome
I thought theres no point making a forum the same as the rest, so I'd try and make it look a little different.
I saw you on BN I think, I was bidding for your P.Irmina.. sadly I lost lol.

Welcome to the forum

Welcome to the forum mate.

Hello and Welcome

I saw you on BN I think, I was bidding for your P.Irmina.. sadly I lost lol.

Yes thats me I almost kept her, they are so beautiful, but I am over max on my T's at the moment and need the room. I have 5 display tanks for my adult female's (3 pokies) that I hope to breed this spring/summer. As there are so many T's I want but of course we all have our limits and mine is space. So I buy the tiny slings and when they get to large juv/adult stage (hopefully sexed) I sell them on, that way I get the fun of watching them grow... the moulting process just amazes me, and enjoying them for awhile then it's time to make room for more little ones (very maternal eh? ).
I still have a few juv's that are awaiting the next moult so I can hopefully sex them, I bought a new camera that does excellent macros so sexing them should be alot easier as my eyes are not as good as they used to be

Ah I get what you mean, I think I must have around a 100 or so, 6 mated female and two sacs..

I'm mainly into avics and pokies really so if you need to sell any gimme a shout and I'll take them off your hands

Regards,

Peter.

I have 6 P.regalis juv's that will be ready the next moult or two, I already have an adult female so I want a male from this group mainly and I might decide to keep a female but don't know yet. So they will be going in an auction when I get them sexed. You wouldn't happen to have a male P. striata looking for a 50/50 would you, she moulted after the last 'date' she had

Hi there,

If you wanted to pm me a price for the 6 I'd prob have them off you, are they living communally atm?
I dont have a MM Striata sorry, someone on here called Lisa has an immature male so when hes ready I'm sure she would loan him out to you

Hi Vicky
Welcome to the forum
That P. irminia was beautiful, I'm sure you could have sold that many times.
I have a male P. striata which hasn't matured yet. Its with Gareth as he has an AF and been with him a while. I'll see if I can get an update. He's the one that Ray Gabriel put his hands on to sex it at Kempton last September.

Thanks, she has just had her moult for this year on 12 Mar so will be ready soon and no chance of her moulting after this time!

Oh, he must be very good with them as the closest I get is with a 15 inch pair of forceps when cleaning

LOL yeah, he has a bit of experience behind him. I was in owe!
In went the hands, prodded him out with a stick, down onto the substrate it went and he covered it with his hand. He then dragged it up to the side to get a ventral sexing. Even Ray Hale was taken back, although he didn't get the Ray Gabriel bit by a pokie photo he was after
