Thanks! She's in need of a molt, but she's going to be gorgeous once she does!

 

[spiderfield]

Absolutely beautiful T! This is definitely one of my fav. species.

 

[FuzzOctave]

[-Sarah-]

Thanks! This is our first Pampho she reminds me of a huge, black T. blondi!

Yup...I am sure a lucky man

I figured you would be the one to reply. Sure wish my gf was into Ts. She doesn't even walk within 5ft of the T shelf.

Man that sucks...We have T's everywhere, Sarah is a rare girl, god I love her. She is beautiful and intelligent. Have you tried to get your girl used to T's ??? give her time she will come around regards Matt

 

[IrishPolishman]

HA! that'll never happen. That was an awesome joke.

 

[Big Red TJ]

You never know stranger things have happened my friend.

 

[Scorpendra]

she's 1 in a million, never forget how lucky you are.

now, about the tarantula, P. antinous is one of my favorite species, but mine pales in comparison to yours.

 

[Sr. Chencho]

Awesome T!!

Sarah/Matt,

What an awesome looking female you've got there. Pamphobeteus is also my favorite specie. Did you guys get her as a sling? Wow, I wish to had a T as docile as yours, as a matter of fact, I do, but she's a Nh. chromatus. My gal is as big as my hand, and very sweet. I just love your P. antinous. Enjoy her and thanks for sharing the pictures. How 'bout some pics. after her molt?

Oh, I've been around on the boards floating around, nowhere in particular! As for the weather, it's gorgeous - sunny, breezy. Love living so close to the beach!!

Thanks, I appreciate that She's a beautiful girl no doubt about it! And stocky, wow! She's got some powerful legs.

Thank you! We got her not quite a couple weeks ago as full size! It would have been awesome to raise her from a sling though. She's lovely! The only tarantula I haven't handled has been T. blondi and P. irminia - both are on my list

 

[ZergFront]

Wow, very impressive girl!

 

[-Sarah-]

Wow, very impressive girl!

Thanks! She's got some considerable weight to her we're going to get pics of both her and the B. smithi gal once they molt. The B. smithi's bald patch has turned black, so we're just waiting for her to do her thing!

 

[lilmoonrabbit]

wow, such a beautiful spider! She's almost got a "cute face" if that makes any sense? I think it's how jet black all her features are. Very nice! congrats!

That's the exact same thing I said after taking those photos - "Aww what a cute face!" (technically they don't really have one.. but the thought still crosses my mind)

I've always wanted a G. pulchra, but never could find any slings. So, this cute little bugger is my "Peruvian Black"
