Requisite Weekend Photos Ten/This one is for Hoj

[Trace]

It’s been a while since I’ve posted any pics; it’s been a busy summer! A month or two back I suddenly lost my male cristatus and I’ve been on the search for a new one ever since. It was a shame as I was starting to cycle my pair for a fall breeding as well. A few weeks back Hoj stepped up to the plate and offered his male on a breeding loan. Thank you! It was a real pleasure to finally meet you and your better half last weekend and hopefully I will be successful in this venture. Have no fear, Mr. Maliki is doing fine. Cruising around in his cage and squinting at things. He actually ate in front of me the other day so I take that as a good sign. On with the pics:

Mr. Maliki (male Trioceros cristatus)

Squinty McSquinterson aka Bad Thing (female Trioceros cristatus). The reluctant soon-to-be-girlfriend.

My CRBE pickup from last weekend: A Brachypelma albopilosum or Honduran Curly hair Tarantula.

Thanks for looking!
Trace
