General experiences? P miranda

[pandinus]

i was just wanting to get a general feedback from those who have owned P mirandas in the past. mine is healthy and happy at maybe 2" and displays a lot of personality, but i was just curious what everyone has experienced because my lil buddy is a trip. I got it because its one of my FAVORITE pokies and i was offered a great deal on a sling that even though i couldnt afford it was just too good to pass up. i had always been told this was one of the most laid back of pokies next to maybe metallicas. i dont know if that's just when they get older or what but this spider is a bigger spaz than my OBT was! lol. she's in a relatively small setup due to her diminutive size ATM, but she is lightning fast and whenever i even turn the enclosure to view her she spazzes out and does about 20 laps around the lid, and i very rarely remove the lid because everytime i do no matter how gently she is on my shoulder before i can figure out what the hell happened. she's about one moult away from an upgrade in enclosure size, but i'm just hoping she mellows out a bit before she gets much bigger. are they all this way as slings, or do i have a special girl?

i think the "laid back" leans more towards their attitude, not to their speed or jumpiness. i have a juvenile pair and both are just as fast and jumpy as any other pokie..but neither have shown me any attitude.

Both of my subadult fems and all 5 of my slings are pretty calm but don't like to be bothered much. They just hide.

They seem to be one of the more skittish Pokies as slings/juveniles. They also grow slower than most of them.
