Those are some amazing tarantulas. 😍
If you breed cockroaches, you'll have too many for only one or two spiders. The solution is to raise mantises too. πŸ˜†

Here's my Orchid mantis eating one...

Her name is Arachna.

Cool, I'm considering another. I haven't made up my mind yet, but I'm leaning toward a Brazilian Jewel.

When she's in the right mood. πŸ˜„

She's a sub-adult, just a year and a half. When she is an adult, her coloration will be even more vibrant.

If you're not a scuba diver, you'd likely not know what they are. But now you know. ☺️

My female Green Bottle Blue tarantula lives 12 to 15 years, three times longer than males, who live 3 to 5 years.

Isn't she gorgeous? 😍

This is true of so many marine creatures. And nudibranchs are a perfect example. πŸͺΈ

Thanks, Jerry. The colors among nudibranchs cover the entire palette. 🎨
