it will be hard for you to get a female sling because at that age its difficult to sex a tarantula. an l. parahybana grows very very fast, and will almost double in size with every molt.'

they are active feeders and like to stand out in the open which makes them great display pets. however, do not attempt to hold one as they are defensive and you are likely to be bit. they also readily kick hairs so watch out for that.

they get very big, up to 9" so be prepared for a monster.

Please correct me if I am wrong but I understand some parahybanas can be quite docile. Even handleable at times.
