This is one of three A.seemanni I bought at the Repticon this past weekend. DLS is over 5.5". They are bulky. I tried to vent sex, couldn't get any good pics..but everything looks like they are females. Also, I think males would have hooked out before reaching this size..?
I got an amazing deal for the three, ( less than you would pay for two slings not including shipping!)
I should add that I took these pics when I got home from the expo, they came cramped into 16oz deli cups..I rehoused them into appropriately sized tubs with deep deep sub. And I should add that I got that great deal after spending some bank on six P.irminia and also a bunch of H.mac slings..

How is her experiment? I’m reading mixed things about them being either chill or terrors. I love their colors and that they are relatively slow-moving. I’m seriously contemplating getting one of these beauties!

I don’t think anyone would call A. chalcodes terrors! The variance that I have seen and heard of in this species is between being calm and skittish. Might you be thinking of A. moderatum? I have read that they can be quite defensive but have not observed this myself.

My new girl! Juvenile wild-caught A. chalcodes. She’s gorgeous and exploring her enclosure already! Gotta think of a name for her.

Was this a typo?

Was this a typo?

Yes, of course! I had been adding to the Brachypelma thread as well. Thanks for letting me know.
