I see no problem if they add something relevant to the thread, as King7 just did.

It is very annoying when you get a 2 year old thread revived with a "me too", or a question to the original poster, who has long since left...

I like this thread, I can't wait until Blondie, my Big Girl Blondi molts and wins the prize!!! I'll be posting her picture here for sure!

PS: I think we should start one of these threads for Hissers, I just looked at some of mine and well, whoo boy.

Whats wrong with it?
Its perfectly valid and fun if there is something to add to it... I dont find anything more annoying than people that post only to complain...

I dont have any really large Ts but I might have one of the larges G.roseas... Ill try and get a picture of it soon, great blondi btw!! :)

my largest pinkfoot

I may have posted this before but heres the last moult from a 10 year old T.apophysis i guess now shes at 25cm as her carapace has grown noticably from this moult. Oh and before anybody in New Zealand sees the ruler and thinks ive got a tarantula in NZ, I dont, the spider is in the UK but yes the ruler is from NZ!!!! Also my smithi at 18 years, her last moult was a full 7 inches.

"Not" mature male B. smithi 5 1/2" +

I have male B. smithi which has not matured yet (hooked out). The last skin is measured at 5", and he is still growing. Apparently this is very large for a male of this species which has not matured yet.

I unfortunately have no photos to back this up, however his last skin, and he has been seen by other members of Arachnoboards.

I have a blondi who at her last molt, the exoskeleton almost covered an average mouse pad. She is by no means the biggest, but she is a good size. I have pics of her exoskeleton on the pad, and of her after the molt. I am having trouble getting them to post on here, but I will get them soon, I hope. There has got to be someone out there who can beat her size, but she is an awesome conversation piece to people who are not in the hobby because to them, SHE IS the biggest T they have ever seen :)

I have a grammostola aureostriata that is pushing about an inch.

Pics will be up soon, as soon as I can resize the rest of the pics in the line before it.

I managed to get a photo of my big male B. smithi with a ruler, and here he is.
He still has'nt hooked out yet, and is still eating healthy.
