I took advantage of the Black Friday sale from Paul Pecker and ordered the following

1. P. muticus 1"
2. A. genic slings
10 LP slings (one is bound to survive right? lol)
1 T. stirmi (I'm super excited about )

Any P. muticus owners who could give me tips? I have a M. balfouri and H. gigas as my baboon species.

I'd love to know if anyone else took advantage and bought anything ^_^

I bought 5 M. balfouri juvies from a user on here for a steal of a price. Not really a Black Friday sale, but that's how I'm treating it! Gonna set up a communal in the coming weeks.

For your P. muticus, keep it like a drier H. gigas. Pretty much the same care other than that.

That's awesome and I hope your communal tank does well ^_^ Would love to see a picture of them when you get it done. I only have 1 balfouri at roughly a little over an inch (worst eater ever, tried live and pre killed prey but it's butt looks healthy so i'm not too worried)

I've always wanted a P. muticus. I figured if I could do alright with this one, raise it to adult, then maybe... just maybe... I could handle an OBT.

Either I've had meek OBT's or my P. muticus is a monster. My juvie is just about 2.5", and it's likely my most aggressive tarantula. Head and shoulders above any OBT I've kept.

I was reeeally tempted to get some Euathlus sp. "red" slings from Jamie's Tarantulas yesterday, but I have so many Aphonopelma slings that I'm taking care of right now, I'm trying to refrain from buying any more for a while. :angelic:

I love P. irminias. I have 2 slings roughly 2ish inches and I'm getting a 3 1/2" suspect female from a guy Monday ^_^ Hopefully one of my slings will be a male for future breedings ^_^

I love ordering from Jamie, but its been getting rather cold here and her overnight shipping is through the roof >.< I probably would have done it if she had a male B. smithi

Very clever... but I hope it doesn't work out like that! I also just bought 5 M. balfouri slings and am trying to keep them communally. I sure hope I don't end up with just one fat spider!
