I decided on a Guyana Pink toe(avicularia avicularia) for my third spidy. They look cool, pretty cheap and most of all there arboreal. I got a nice big tank in me she'd just waitin to be used. What do you lot think of this species?

I love one. He was the first T I ever owned. A little jumpy but otherwise easily handled

im very new to this hobby but my 2nd T was a pink toe and I feel like they are the cutest and most harmless tarantulas ever. They seem skittish and fast but you can tell they are just such innocent creatures with their pink toes hehehe. I tend to do maintenance and all kinds of stuff in the small nano tall tank and she/he just always minds her busines. yea she might get nervous but you can tell she just doesnt want to hurt you or get defensive on you. such awesome T , so happy I have her/he.

Avic avic are awesome T's. good size can be fast and jumpy though. then you have the Avic versicolor another cool T also. they are a little jumpier than the Avic avic. if you like the Avic avic then you should like the versicolor its a fuzzy pink toe.

Very good spiders, definitely keep them at high humidity! I have 4 in a communal setup.


Life is too short to be anything but happy

My 2nd t and 1st sling. No problems, but watch out they will run from you rather quickly if threatened. They're fun to watch hunt too, from my experience with mine they're all around great spiders.

Avicularia is our favorite genus. Do not worry about SADS or any crap like that,and do not fuss over the spider like most first time Avicularia owners do.They are very easy to care for,and way hardier than most think.
