Love her colors!!
They are by far one of the best and underestimated NW T's. I love my baby, she's always hungry, amazing. It's incredible how much great are certain NW T's once someone jumps out of that (however respectable) "Brachy & Grammo" league or OW's rapture at all cost, skipping amazing NW T's like this one.
 
@Chris LXXIX thank you I totally agree they were on my wishlist for a long time they have nothing to be jealous of other colourful species like B.smithi but I can't understand why they are not so widespread...
 
@Dora I have noticed that, lately but only lately, they "jumped" a bit more in the hobby, which is great. One of the reasons is probably because they were (and still are, to an extent) always "labeled" as hard to keep, which isn't true :)
 
@Chris LXXIX Hmm why is that??I haven't heard this rumor about this species!Does yours lift her belly to scare you??Mine does it all the time I think it's hillarious...Also my Pamphobeteus antinus does it regularly!
 
@Dora Because in general Megaphobema robustum is viewed like a Theraphosidae difficult to keep, while, on the other hand, those needs only lot of inches of moist substrate, a water dish, a cork bark for hide.

People are also "scared" by temperatures... stating that they needs "cooler" ones etc

Mah :)

Of course ah ah. That's one of the three defense system they have (kicking hairs, bite, and those jumps that are lovely).
 
Ok that doesn't seem so tragic to me..Mine is fine with temperatures!And they are affordable!I want to take babies from here she was supposed to come with a male but he died and I received her alone:(
