Is there any species out there that are SUPER Fuzzy? I tried searching but only one thread came up and not what i was really looking for. I need a little fuzzball in my collection.

The back pair of legs on E. longiceps are a lot like the fuzz of newborn mammal hair. They're aggressive but slow. Every time my female is out I feel her back legs. Definitely a cool spider!
TBH

Avicularia are pretty fuzzy. Especially A. Metallica.

I have to agree with the general concensus that most Avicularia species are very fuzzy, but 'metallica' in particular looks very fuzzy.

Nhandu Vulpinus, Nhandu Coloratovillosus, Megaphobema Robustum, and Lasiodora Parabyhana are what I have.

Oh man I think I'd have to agree with bicegoi. Evil little goobers to. Some of the worst itch that has ever been inflicted on me.
I agree with this too. I specifically bought an A. bicegoi because I wanted the cute little fuzz ball in my collection {D

I second this idea. This was one of the Ts on my 'maybe' list when i was deciding where to start. It's on my 'to get' list now, LOL.

Here's a pic i pulled from the gallery, posted by †-MarK-†

First time I've heard it being referred to as a Mexican Curly Hair...always thought the most 'common' common name was Honduran Curly Hair.

Guess that's why common names = bad.

I would go with B. albopilosum or A. bicegoi as well. Both very good choices for 'furry' spiders.

Heres a recent pic of my A. "Huriana" There may well be fuzzier species...but from what Ive seen, this is a contender for sure!
And when she has her legs pulled in..its a fuzzball.

I guess all Central/South American Countries look alike to him/her?

Brachypelma albopilosum and many Avics are fuzzy little critters. I love my little B. albo I just wish she would come out of her burrow every once in a while.
