This is Rachel spider, my Female lp. She's big, pretty cute as far as spider go lol, has eaten EVERY TIME I have ever given her food. She also eats every kind of feeder (supers, roaches, crickets...). Care is as simple as could be. You need a 10 gallon enclosure because of their size, but everything else is a snap.

Crazy as it seems, I gotta go with the P. muticus (@Chris LXXIX ). She's so robust and has that nasty attitude without the I'm racing out of my tank to get you. She made a nice den that I can see her in and occasionally, I see her out at night. As bad of a bite she packs with her surly attitude, she is surprising easy to work with. I have 2 Goddesses (the Queen and the Princess) and they are both awesome. PBUT...Peace be upon them...

She looks gorgeous, I only have a 7.4 gallon tank lol an Exo Terra 12x12x12 inch. But if I got as a Sling whilst he/she grows up they could make use of my Exo Terra on the way lol

I can only say this: lately a lot of good, honest, kind, respectful, trustworth, sweet, wise, intelligents etc etc & etc loves the Goddess 0.1 Pelinobius muticus PBUH (Peace Be Upon Her) to the point that they decided to embrace the hissing wisdow.

Last was @Steelo Johnson. High Five Man. And those are incontrovertible facts no one can deny u_u

Futile to explain why and the reasons why the Goddess is at the Top.

Have a nice Christmas, haters of the Goddess, for that Santa's will deliver Whoopi Goldberg naked pics straight on your filthy chimney, while we will enjoy our Lady sweet rear legs, in full "zen Christmas spirit" mode :troll:

O holy night!
The Goddess is brightly shining
It is the night of the dear Goddess birth!
Long lay the world in sin and error pining
Till She appear'd and the soul felt its worth.
A thrill of hope the weary soul rejoices
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn!

Fall on those rear legs
Oh hear Her hissing voice
Oh night divine
Oh night when the Goddess was born
Oh night divine
Oh night divine

Led by the light of that burrow serenely beaming
With glowing hearts by Her cradle we stand
So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming
Here come the wise Theraphosidae from African land
The Goddess of Gods lay thus in lowly manger
In all our trials born to be our friend

Truly She taught us to love one another
Her law is love and Her hissing is peace
Chains shall She break for the upcoming Goddess owner is our brother
And in Her name all oppression shall cease
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,
Let all within us praise Her holy name: Goddess 0.1 Pelinobius muticus PBUH (Peace Be Upon Her)

Hard to choose -- My GBB and B emilia are probably my most beautiful Ts. But end of the day, Rosie wins -- I've had her the longest. Never been haired, no attitude when I need to remove a bolus (or more likely, a rejected feeder). Plus she plays with her ping-pong ball the most. So.... Rosie it is. :)
