oh wow, how tiny! it's cute though. i'm guessing one would keep it in that until it's a bit larger. i'm not sure tho, just an observation.

Congrats on the new sling! You're going to love how quick they grow. I'd leave it in the container you have for awhile yet. It will probably do a bit of digging & rearranging once it settles in. Nice to see another BC'er on the boards! I grew up in Kamloops, what part do you live in? (if you don't mind me asking)

That is a L. parahybana, right? 35$ sounds kinda pricey for it, especially with the added 20$ shipping.

When I got mine it was about 3/4" and was only $8 with $8 for shipping (I went priority)and she threw 2 more in as freebies . I put mine in a 4x6 container and they seem to like it . Two of them started digging right away . Now they are about 2"-2 1/2" and 2 of them stay out most of the time but 1 still likes to hide in its burrow .

Not that pricey

Our american friends must consider that almost no US supplier ships to Canada. So we have both Avery Exotics and Tarantula Canada to choose from if we want something other than a chilean Rose. They both supply quality spiders at decent prices and considering the lack of other Canadian dealers they could charge four times those prices if they wanted to but they don't. That $35 u spent was a great deal for what looks like a healthy spiderling. For comparison, a friend of mine just purchased a 4" L. parahybana from a local pet store for $150.

Just to clarify my position,,,,I have no problem with what I paid for my L.Para.
And I will keep supporting Dave as long as I can keep my wife on board haa ha....So I think my next one will be a GGB or something a like that.

So here is a better pic of my newly acquired T.
Anyone have Ideas on a Name?I really suck at naming and my kids call them stuff like sammaumma ha ha I get a kick out of them kids lol maybe sammaumma is a good name rofl.
