Help a new(ish) keeper ID his friend

[John Emerson]

In my head I feel like I saved this little one from a LPS, it was only advertised as a "Pinktoe"...
I believe it through my own research to be an A. metallica. I want to place a correct label on it's home. Sorry for any wrong nomenclature or newb mistakes. Thanks

IMO Avicularia avicularia morphotype metallica.

You 'saved' this one, but you directly supported another bad LPS negligence and/or sales strategy in the end, only leading to more spiders being mistreated the same way.
Just food for thought...

Requests to identify a tarantula's species should be uploaded in the Tarantula Identification gallery, not posted on the forum.

1. Click the above link.
2. Click "Add Media" (near the upper-right corner).
3. Select "Upload an image from your files" (should be selected by default).
4. Click "Upload Image."
5. Select the image file on your computer or phone.
6. Add a title (preferably including the scientific species name) and description.
7. Click "Save Media."

If you have multiple images of the same tarantula, the best way to handle that is post a comment on your first image with thumbnail links to the additional images.

How to embed images in comments (I recommend using the thumbnail option):

1. Open the image (in Arachnoboards) that you want to embed.
2. Copy the code in "Share BB (With Thumbnail) Code" or "Share BB GALLERY Code." (Both of these options allow the user to click the image for a link to the source.)
3. Paste the code where you want the image to be in your comment.

"Share BB IMG (With Thumbnail) Code" results in a square preview with a link to the original:
