Did anyone say the T had to be alive? Here is a mounted 8 1/2 in male Pamphobeteus antinous. I heard they get to be 10 in but I've never seen one that big.

I'm pushing 3'2" these days...you need to be more observant.


If you guys really want to do this...you need one of those grids that are in 1 inch increments...I think I've seen TravisK post a pic of his spder on one. This way, the spider can be measured from all angles.

You need to have a uniform method of measurement.

Did everyone's interest dissipate so quickly? I expected everyone to be anxious to show off their largest T's of each specie. I guess a lot of what I hear about size is a fantasy. :?

When I get the chance I'll get a pic of my Avicularia braunshauseni female with a ruler. I got her from KTBG and he had her listed as 7". I have pics but none with a ruler/tape measure yet. Anybody else have an Avic this size or larger?

Well be prepared to be shocked! My female blondi, Zilla, molted today (the one pictured earlier in this thread) and her molt measures 10" - she's 11" or more now. Obviously I can't get a measurement of her now but I will sometime in the next few weeks when she's stretched and hardened up. But I have a measurement pic of her molt in the molt sequence I just posted - here's a link:

I wouldn't be suprised, I thought robc's ornata was 10"?
Yeah, she is 10" (as confirmed by Reptist - who I got her from) but I don't have a measurement pic of her as of yet...I will hopefully be able to get one after I pull her sac. Hopefully she molts after she's done with the sac and makes it easy on me to get a measurment! LOL

Oh and do take note of the fact that I am not touching or stretching my molt like you were with your blondi. :)
