Could my username please be changed to Derek W. if it is not already taken? Thanks.

I'm guessing he meant they typically don't, or he's never had it happen to him. I have one and she's never flicked hairs at me. However, they unquestionably have the capability...in fact some people on the boards have had some pretty crazy unpredictible roseas. I would imagine you have some idea...

At what size does the white band on the underside of P. regalis become visible? Are there times in premolt where it becomes almost impossible to see or is it always fairly obvious?

What's the best way to put holes into those display cubes many people use for arboreals without cracking it?

Wow it looks like that A. metallica completely webbed up her entire enclosure, that's pretty awesome...unless you want to see her I guess.

Specifically, what kind of lids are you using?

Does anyone use readymade enclosures with the sliding tops that petco and petsmart sells? I think they are called critter cages or something? I am thinking about getting a couple, but I wanted to make sure they're escape-proof.

Really interesting behavior, did they all jump the roach at the same time or did one strike first and the others follow?

From what I understand no one can keep them alive in captivity for very long...

The op also mentioned handling as being a factor...and I don't think any of the NW's that lack hairs typically have a personality that allows for handling. OP, I think your best shot is an Avic since it's not likely to use it's hairs on you, but if your that concerned about the hair then the...

BTW I'll try to get some pics up soon! And if you happened to go to the expo feel free to tell what you got!

Today at the NE Reptile Expo I got my first P. irminia! Beautiful looking little sling, and my first fast and fiesty arboreal (my other arboreal is an adult female A. avicularia that you could poke with a cattle prod and it still wouldn't so much as lift a foot.). I really look forward to...

Very true, luckily I don't have a wife to answer to yet...but I do have parents...not sure which is worse lol

Last year was my first time there and I was suprised that I actually managed to walk away from CBP's table without buying anything...I doubt that will happen again this time

Or maybe it's not even about competition but instead about killing off the runts of the litter so to speak, so that only the strongest fastest molting slings reach adulthood and mate?

I'm going. Cold Blooded Pets usually has a good selection of T's.

I agree with E-Town, if it's called Chile something then it is probably reffering to the country Chile, which is in South America, and South America is part of the New World...therefore it's a New World T But the real problem here is...does ANYONE read the rules and the begginer's sticky...

If you could post a pic that would be helpful

Yeah the nearest petstore with any sort of decent selection of T's and reptiles is about 50 miles from me... And I say go for the cobalt at that price and if you think you're ready for it. For the record I don't support buying wild caught T's when a captive bred alternative is available...

Aren't they in the same subfamily as the Poecs? Selenocosminiinae I think. Maybe that's where the idea that their venom might be more serious came from.
