I have had my share of versis an I can say this male was definitely the brightest T I have ever had. Now I'm shooting for the Cyriopagopus lime green lol

I'll take that bet :p

Yes but he said the T is already 4". My male went from right around 4" to almost 5.5" on it's ultimate molt.

Sorry, but that P. murinus will hook out at 5-5.5" The little indent is tell tale of male and on a female of that size there's a second ridge (for lack of a better term)

H. maculata are not as arboreal as most would like them to be. Mine has been set up a few different ways and always chooses the base of whatever structure I have set in there. Heat and humidity are probably not too important (but don't go to extremes). Somewhere in the 70-80F and 65-75% on...

These things can grow in leaps and bounds. I got my P. ornata at 1" in June or July of 2006 and by Feb 2007 it was 6"

I have 8 B. albo juveniles 4 of which are burrowers, 2 think they are arboreal, and the other 2 are right where you'd want them. Food for thought: All terrestrials are burrowers in natural conditions (some dig, some hide behind/under rocks) natures self contained safety device.

Any "collecting" hobby is much the same. The only real difference is collecting animals is truly interactive. P.S. I hate pokemon ;P

There may have been some stipulation on how long he could sustain them in captivity, which lends well to the captive bred babies from captive bred parents. I think maybe Eric Reynolds and Kelly Swift for the U.S.? Maybe even Michael Jacobi. Martin and Amanda brought some in for the...

hands down the coolest NW terrestrial is *drumroll please* Acanthoscurria geniculata I have never seen mine refuse a meal. I bet it would even eat mid-molt. It gets large and doesn't take forever to grow

Great minds think alike lol. Here's my post on the ATS. http://atshq.org/forum/showpost.php?p=114348&postcount=2

If his throat swells shut from inflammation?

what you highlighted are the palpal bulbs. Hooks occur on each of the front legs . Here's a shot to show you what I mean. The bottom of the third segment on the inside of the tarantula's left leg.

I don't tend to think "where's the camera?" as my Pokies, Haplo's, Heteroscodra etc are climbing all over me. Yes it has happened (very long stories some are even funny) will it happen again probably, will I then get pics probably not lol. Anyway I'll go look and see what I have. You said...

back on topic :) My best hunter has to be my P. cambridgei. It'll be up in it's tube web and I'll purposely set a cricket in the dirt and it never fails the T comes down out of the tube web halfway across the tank and ***** sorry for cricket lovers but that's where the story starts to go...

I'm in for girl on this one ;)

Gauranteed male. At that size "separation" would be noticed. See this comparison to understand what I'm saying.

Can you guys be certain??? Here's the comparison photo.

Female!!! Congrats.

Are you sure this is N. coloratovillosus? Here's two photo's that made me ask that question. N. carapoensis Imm. male: N. coloratovillosus Female: Notice the grey underside is the carapoensis, and black for coloratovillosus. Now I don't have both sexes of either so maybe...
