Poecilotheria tigrinawesseli (Wessel's Tiger Ornamental) pairing!

This was a long, drawn out process that took about an hour and a half to complete. Not a quick in and out like some species but everything looked successful! Fingers crossed this leads to a nice healthy eggsac!

So the other day I got a surprise box in the mail! I haven't been able to do photoshoots lately because my light broke and my photobox broke and I was in the works of replacing it so I can get back to showing you guys awesome stuff.

Turns out, Jeremy Coffey and Karen Dubin went halves on getting me a sweet new light AND a gift card to put towards a new photobox. I can't thank you 2 enough for putting that together for me and it really shows appreciation for what I do. Thank you a million times!

Today I was fooling around with it since I finally had time and these are pictures I took with the new setup. Poecilotheria tigrinawesseli (Wessel's Tiger Ornamental) and Orphnaecus sp Quezon Blue (Quezon Blue Earth Tiger) (the Mom to all of these tiny babies). I think they came out fantastic and they look great with a better light.

I just want to say thank you for the gifts and just know I'm never actually expecting anything so to recieve a gift like that really put a smile on my face.

Eucratoscelus pachypus (Stout Leg Baboon) 2nd pairing

This male locked up with her for about 2 hours until they separated just enough for me to get him moved out of there. I really hope this project is successful for many reasons. One main reason is to keep CB slings in the US rotation. Absolutely LOVE these guys!

Harpactira baviana (Purcell's Baboon) Mature Male

This is a species I wish was more prominent in the hobby. Both my female and this male are really something to gawk at. In about a week or 2, this guy has a hot date with my lady. She dropped a sac once before and I'm hoping she'll do it again!

Alright...last post I'm going to make about this clown...and whoever is feeding him information, I'm going to ask you to stop...*sigh* Here we go...

1. I was given the OBT on loan because that's what I do. I'd much rather split sling with someone instead of sit on 100+ of something of the same species. Anyone that's done breeding projects with me knows this....Had nothing to do with money.

2. I never sold anyone's whole collection. Heck I never even took in any collections before last year when I did a consignment with a guy here in Denver. I'm not sure what he's talking about there...

3. The spider (Ornithoctoninae sp Laos) I sold to Eric Lehman was sold to me as uns*xed. I never got a molt from it so I can't guarantee s*x. I don't trust ventral s*xing so I only do molt confirmed here. I sold it to him for what I paid for it from another vendor.

4. When it came time to repay my loan, I offered him 10. Not 5. I had 20 so I offered him half. I'm not sure why he said that I only offered him 5. If I can get the messages to load, I can post screenshots and all that of the conversation but since I have him blocked, it won't let me open the convo.

5. Eight Deadly Sins is not going anywhere. My website is going away but me as a person, I'm here to stay. I'm still going to keep doing what I love and I'm still going to make people happy. Everyone that knows me knows that I'm nothing but upfront and honest with everything I do...

Ok guys...I'm actually done with Aaron Grimoire and like I said, whoever is being his little "spy", please stop. It's not a good look. Nobody even likes the guy...I have much better things to do.

Funny how this clown got blacklisted by so many people for causing drama and stirring the pot (including me) and yet he still won't shut up about other vendors...Crazy there's people out there that still support him after what he called my wife...😂
