Then and Now! Tarantula Pictures.

[Ian Hall]

I've put a number of pictures together of my tarantulas to show how much they have changed and to give others and idea of the growth rate of certain species.

Please feel free to add your own.

Brachypelma boehmei



Brachypelma smithi



Grammostola pulchripes



Chromatopelma cyaneopubescens



Ceratogyrus darlingi

Brachypelma smithi 10mm to 2.5 inch

Grammostola pulchripes 1.5 inch to 5 inch

Chromatopelma cyaneopubescens 1 inch to 4 inch

Ceratogyrus darlingi 5mm to 2.5 inch

Here are a few of mine juvi's

Psalmopoeus irminia juvi



Haplopelma lividum



Brachypelma smithi juvi



brachypelma albiceps juvi



Grammostola rosea

I rescued her from a owner that did not look after it right. It had a broken leg when i had her and the broken leg is shown in the first picture. She also had not ate anything for over a year the previous owner said and was kept on rotting wood chippings and vermiculite. I changed the subtrate to coco fibre and put a heat mat on the side of the enclosure and after a few weeks she molted and started to eat again. she also had grown a new leg and is a different spider, more happy i think.

See how scruffy she was at first.
