Genus Avicularia

[Hairyspider]

A.hurrania

How are there dispositions?, I've heard that they are more defensive than most other Avics. I plan on getting more Avics.
I have become friends with an owner of a local Reptile shop, who will do some ordering for me and only increase the price 20%, since he doesn't have to house them or do any feeding. So I feel a big order comming on If he can get these I will be ordering an A.hurrania, A.minatrix, A.metallica, A.purpera. A.juruensis, A.laeta, and poss some Psalms.

One of my A. laeta slings

Either a juv. laeta or bad lighting or a different species because laeta look pretty much just like a versicolor as a s'ling and keep there blue until about the 2" mark. Greg

Here's Macabre again('A. metallica')..grown a lot in a little less then a year, yeah? Like lightning! Like fungus! Like a living compost-heap!

...


I got her (it) in August, last year (-03). Yeah, that's a super-sized maggot, a, a King maggot, and that's not a normal glass I keep her in, it's a, a, ..a 45-litre one. Yeah. Can they grow any slower? ..Hah, *remembers Mendi's humorous post in the Aphonopelma-thread*..

[etienne]

Avicularia sp. robisch

Hi,

One more time, nice T and nice picture Mr Heen!
This one is a young female Avicularia sp. robisch, from Ecuador.
One of my favourites, not really common in North Europe...

 

[Tarantula Lover]

Avicularia laeta

Anyone have any of these? Here is a pic, she has molted 3 more times after this pic. She is now a gold and pinkish color! Enjoy! Please post your pics if you have any!

Yes I have 6 of them, Mom and 5 of her slings, depending on who you got it from it may have been one of hers? Not the prettiest of avics but this girl is definitely one of my favorites as she has lots of personality. Here is a neat pic of the little guys from an old thread, and also added a few new pics. http://www.arachnoboards.com/ab/showpost.php?p=253201&postcount=19 Greg

 

[jeffh_x]

the slings look great...

 

[Tarantula Lover]

I got mine from Bryan Cronoss, as a lil guy. Mine is around the size that you have got in your first pic and they look exactly like versicolors. Nice pics!

[manville]

they look really nice..

 

[Vanan]

One of the few species which look better as slings. Them and P. platyomma.

 

[nowhereman]

Nice avics

Gotta love em. Almost look like our A. purpurea but closer to a versicolor. Here's a recent pic of our A. purpurea. Last molt on 12/11.
