Little Tarantulas: Cyriocosmus elegans

Hello, welcome to my blog! If you want to know a little about me well, I used to be terrified of spiders! However a few years ago I decided to try and concur my fear by learning as much as I could about these incredible creatures and I became quite fascinated with them. Around 6 months later I brought three tiny Euathlus sp. 'Yellow' slings, who truly started my Tarantula admiration and fascination. A couple of years on and although they haven't grown much, my admiration for these amazing creatures has!
