Rear legs of king baboon (Forgot the latin name), legspan of T.Apophysis, bulk of L.Klugi, coloration of H.Maculata.

Mine thought everything hitting the ground was food. Bottomless pits for appetite. Great looking T. Once it gets the hit that it's not food it's pouncing on, she became clueless and just sat there.

To remove the hairs, use duct tape or lindt roller. To relieve the itching I use calamine lotion and take some anti-histamines at certain times of the day. I find that the itching gets really intense around 9pm and around noon. Must be something with the body's daily cycle. Benadryl works...

I think it is now fashionable to replace punctuations with words like "so" and "which". At least his spelling is mostly correct.

I froze a roach, and she ate it. I'm a happy camper. Now to feed her enough to make her moult.

I had a feeling it was gonna be a simple one, yet just couldn't figure it out myself. Thanks Joe.

I know this seems like a silly question, but really, these guys are resilient as hell. Story is I've got a Klugi with some broken fangs. She tries to grab the roaches, but she lets go since her fangs don't pierce the roach. So how do I pre kill? Severing the head still leaves it kicking...

We have tarantulas in philippines?

Good lord!

Sounds like the typical lasiodora right there. haha.

In term's of how thick they look and in proportion, yes.

I'd love to get a female, but the flow of tarantulas here isn't as high as in the US. Not quite interested tin 50/50 simply because I don't have the time to take care of that many slings. RytheTguy: I don't think Fran and I are arguing, but rather just trying to find out how big he really is.

Abdomen plus carapace are quite close to 4 inches, and the tank is 8 inches wide, not 6.

Took another photo of him. Tip of his 2nd from the front right leg (dont know the exact term) is right on the 6inch mark. Uploaded with ImageShack.us ---------- Post added at 11:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:38 PM ---------- If only it were a she. It's a male :(

I know. I'm just poking around for some fun. 10 inches may be the length he can stretch from front to back. DLS may be a different story. If he dies on my hands, I'll measure him and take a photo. If it's 13 inches, I'm calling the Guiness Book of World Records.
