We were able to get a video of our A. purpurea and it is now easily our most beautiful tarantula. :D The color doesn't translate quite like real life, but it is still stunning.

So, here is our Twitch!:D

Beautiful Avic!

Those hue's of purple must be grand in person and great info/camera work you two! :)

Amazing it just sat there.. Most Avic's I've ever handled constantly tried to walk off my skin or the constant `tread milling` over hands...

Nice work as always :D

The purple of the carapace is very metallic looking purple, but you can't really see it on the video. Also thank you, I seem to be getting the hang of this camcorder and have fewer shakes and disorienting shifts of camera angle.;)

This one is normally the twitchiest of our Avicularia, but it wasn't in the mood to even walk around that day, let alone be twitchy. It has a bad habit of jumping as well, so that made doing this video much easier! It took a little work to get it on his hands though, it reminded me of the character Stuart off MadTv saying NOooooo..... lol

I'll let my husband, Mr. Gone, know.;) There is a reason he talks and I film. lol :D
While nothing against Mr. Gone I believe I've heard your voice before (some video, somewhere) and it wasn't bad at all.. I think you need to challenge him more for camera time, lol :)

Well thank you, but he is the kind of person that loves to teach/ talk about things he is interested in, whereas I love doing the filming aspect. Maybe when I finally am able to ditch the patch, I will be in a video. ;)

It was being a bit jumpy that day, literally. I was very happy to have caught its behavior before it decides to leap. Thank you for watching! :)
