^stunning!
She was a sweetie.
The fang size is actually really large for the genus.
The carapace gets a nice round bulldog look as an adult just like the Theraphosa.
Watch a youtube video of "dozer" the pulchra.
Good upload by a pulchra owner.

anyway to prevent my pictures from flipping 90° - 180° angles? it's quite irritating and i don't want people having to turn their phone/laptop upside down to view these pics lol

Five days after ultimate molt saw sperm webs in the corner of its enclosure. Who says G. Porteri aren't beautiful

Very nice photos everyone. I love this species.

I only have 1 G.rosea female. I am currently looking for a matured male so that I can keep them going.

Thanks,

She just molted last week so she'll be ready soon. I have plenty of breeding experience with these guys. Years back I flooded the market with them on these and other boards.

G. pulchripes first adult and last juvenile colors side by side

Two young G. pulchripes, same age but one molt apart. First hint of adult colors at about a year old. They have grown slowly because where I have them it gets very cold in winter and very hot in summer. They didn't eat for long periods.
