Acanthoscurria geniculata
She is just a bit smaller than my now sadly departed big girl 'Genie' (my avatar). She was 8 inch DLS in what proved to be her final moult after spending best part of 20 years with me. RIP
yea i remember your post, this girl may never replace her but i am sure she will grow just as large
20 years is quite a feat, i used to think i would get all my spiders to that age no problem, but once you realize how few make it anywere close to 20 years it becomes apparent those that make it are the oddballs out
(with similar species at least)

Can't replace you are right, but think that's a good thing for any animal we care for TBH. All are unique 😊. This one for example flicks all the time. Already doing it and only 2 days post moult. Ha ha
