I've got a 3" one I've raised since it was 1/2" and he has always been a little strange and unpredictable, but never aggressive. That changed these past few days. I don't know what got into him, but when I prod him with a poker to get him out of his cage he straight up turned around and attacked it, and then hissed! He did this again today! I teased him a bit more today and instead of giving up and turning back into a good spider and tolerating the touching he stayed in his threat pose and continued to hiss before he ran back to his hole.
I thought these guys were supposed to be the nice species! He molted a few weeks ago and has been well fed since. Just a mood or just a little spider getting too big for his britches?
