Mucho Pretty!

Nice Versicolor you got there JPW. My little one is the same size. The only thing is I'm kinda leary 'bout handling it due to its sm size and losing it if he happens to dash on me. My Versicolor is way too nice, just like yours. Enjoy!!

Beautiful! Is it calm about being handled so far? I would be terrified of losing it if it were to bolt!

Yeah it’s really calm. I only handled it once for the photos. I was kind of scared of it bolting so I blocked my self off on the floor so it would have no where to run. I just pulled the lid off and it gently crawled out onto my hand and made its way up to my elbow then back down so I put him back in after some quick photos. It was like it was just checking me out. It is very chill so far.

Finally got a picture of my A. versicolor on my tattoo. The tattoo is of my male, whom has passed on of old age. The spider in the shot is my female.

wow, sweet! i just wish my female would already built an eggsack. she looks like she's about to burst and keeps delaying... how long did it take your versi to built a sack after mating? i mated mine in november 2006 and she hasn't done a thing besides hiding and growing fatter.

I agree, she is VERY hot!!!!!!! So when are you going to mate her and let her pass on her good looks to some slings?
