We bought some crickets for the tarantulas today. I thought it might be neat to take a couple photos of them before the were dinner. (I love crickets and grasshopper. I think they are very adorable!)

Here is also the after photo:

That is FIVE crickets Grouchy pants has stuffed in her mouth.......

Hope you have a great night!

Grouchy Pants molted! This is the closest anyone can get to Grouchy Pants with out her getting really grouchy.  Her hairs are surprisingly soft. I think she would be quite pleasant to pet if she didn't hate everyone. Don't look at this blog post if you don't like spiders. (NOT an April Fools).

Look at those toenails!

The bottoms of her feet grab hold and give her traction.

Here she is in her new skin! Her red hairs are incredibly vibrant. This photograph doesn't even begin to show how pretty she is.

Have a good night. I hope I didn't give anyone nightmares.

Jen has a hyacinth.

You know you are having a bad day when you find this running around your house!

Just kidding! Grouchy Pants was waiting to move into her new tank.

Hope you have a good night!!

Sorry for the late post, I am 98% sure that I am starting a new job tomorrow that came to me out of the blue and I was in training for a long time today. I will tell you more probably tomorrow.

Artemis has started to do this really funny thing, when I open his cage he hops out and starts to play with the bamboo plant.

He saw me taking his photos and then stopped being cute and hopped back on his cage:

Gave me a dirty look, then went to sit with fish and ignore me.....

So, I tried to take some photos of Illaghri. She is out more now since she has a heat lamp.

But, she was having none of it tonight, as well..... and went back in her coconut....

Grouchy Pants sat still for me though. It might be because she was trying to figure out how she could eat me..... look at her beady eyes......

I have a feeling I might have a little less creative energies in the coming days as I settle in to my new routine. I'm going to thank you in advance to sticking with me. I know I will figure out the balance.
