Brachypelma emilia
‘Taika’, b.emilia AF. Another day, another big brachy out on show. Love this genus :D
IME, no members of the genus seem to understand the concept of hiding. Even when provided both hide and ample sub to burrow, they just sit smack in the middle of the cage for all to see. I have no problems with that ;)

Agreed, very few of the brachypelma I have kept are prone to hiding at a larger size, whilst the likes of Aphonopelma maintain a somewhat fossorial lifestyle well into adulthood even in captivity, at least IME. My grammostola will burrow as well but still choose to stay out I think they just do it for fun haha.
