So is this genus hand pets? I see a lot of pictures of people holding theirs. and in other pictures none or most of them are not doing threat displays.

Hi Ota,

only P. chordatus and P. vorax have lateraly flexed Metatarsus I.
(So, P. vorax are not (yet) in the hobby, so its possible to ID this species with the Metatarsus I - and of course of the habit of the specimen.) :)

Here you can see a P. lugardi male (not yours - as you see on the year) without this flexed Metatarsus I.

Some close-ups on my P.murinus RCF.
I was so focused on getting the close-up shots that i totally forgot about taking shots of the T itself. :? Maybe, next time.

Enjoy,
