Sparky (Grammostola mollicoma)...

She's about 2" in legpsan in this picture. It's hard to see in this picture, but she has a golden metallic patch of hair in the middle of her abdomen (which she's largely kicked off).

She likes to eat!

The patch on her abdomen is like golden velvet. She's kicked off part of it though.

Shed skin, 03/04/2000 molt with a quarter for scale.
