My recently demised red knee has a final leg measurement of 7 3/8 inches and a carapace of 30mm (sorry about the different units but somehow i find legspan in inches gives most a better feel for size than cm) making her more pampho size than brachypelma!
her death could have been caused by smoke damage from a bad housefire so potentially she could have got a little big bigger but close to 7 1/2 inches is good enough for me!
as far as im aware thats the biggest red knee measurement out there, i'll post a scaled photo if needed.
pic added. Her abdomen is tiny as I dissected out the contents ready for putting in cotton to fill it back up.
