What T to get?

[rosehaired1979]

I know what I want but these 2 spieces are not sold from 1 dealer so I have to choose because can't afford shipping from 2 different dealers (unless CSP gets one of these in then I can have both cause w/CSP don't have to pay shipping) So which one of the two do u think I should get?

Why it's so difficult to decide by your own?
It should not be that difficult to say "i like this more, i can buy this later". Or at least i know if i have to decide between two t's which one i want though i want them both. Maybe im just weirder than i thought.

Where is this world going if this simple thing is so difficult?

Nothing wrong with asking an opinion...I personally prefer A.juruenicola

 

[jdcarrel]

not trying to judge, but I like the Brachypelma baumgarteni a lot more.

Yeah but I like them the same so I can't choose

how big is the B. baumgatreni?

 

[rosehaired1979]

1/2" and I believe the Acanthoscurria juruenicola is the same size

 

[jw73]

You should buy both.

then you should get the baumgarteni........ because i supplied them

I voted for the A. juruenicola, because I love mine and I'm not big on Brachypelma. However, I agree with Salla. What you choose to purchase is your own decision, no one should make that decision for you. We all have our personal preferences, and they may not necessarily be your own. I've never asked anyone what I should buy, and I never will. I know what I like, and I don't need anyone to make up my mind for me.

Usually when I make an order I go to a dealer who has everything I'm looking for, if there isn't a dealer offering all that I want I make the decision to go with the dealer that has most of what I want and get the others later. I never order one spider at a time, my orders usually never contain less than 10 spiders.

>>they're doing great Eddy.They've molted 2-3 times now and are getting bigger now(appr 1").Another couple molts and the adult colors should be showing.I can hardly wait!

hey, my little baumgarteni molted a couple of weeks ago and is showing dark femurs and pale orangish legs. Its absolutley gorgeous, and its a sling! I'm very happy with it. emilsmee(here on the boards) has one too, and hers still is hatchling tan.
So I'm taking a wild guess that mine is male , and I have christened it Bob.
Bob the Baum.
Its going to be fun watching it grow.
Thanks metallica!

BTW pelo, my Peucetia is showing blue, yellow and red legs!! I moved it to a 2.5 gallon tank by the window, and I can see all the colors in the natural light, its amazing. Thanks for correcting my feeding it pinheads. :8o It can take down half inch crickets...

>>I "think" I discovered how to identify sexes of peuctia.On one of mine,the male got quite noticeable "globes" on the end of his palps and remained smaller than the female I have.I put him with the female but found him dead on the substrate the following day...hmmm...I don't know if they mated or not and she hasn't produced a sack as yet.So keep an eye on yours and if you noticed little "globes" on the end of it's palps let me know and maybe we can get them together for some breeding...1/2 inch crickets???...bahhh....put in a large one and watch the show...lol..

[rosehaired1979]
