Beautiful T. blondi
Aww, look at that sweet face!!!Such a good baby for me!
Wow I so wish I could clone you and bring one of your clones back to Ohio.
I have been searching for a girl in the cursed state of Ohio for well over 15 years who isn't downright terrified of spiders and I just cannot ever find them and I do not really know how to go about finding them. Every girl I've ever tried to talk to in Ohio runs for the hills as soon as I mention my love of spiders. Your fiancee is a lucky man.Having said that, even though I have loved spiders since the age of 4, I do not know if I could muster the courage to hold a birdeater like that. They are awesome to look at, but it'd seem surreal to hold a spider that big. Plus, from my understanding, they have a wicked bite (I don't know how true that is though)? Regardless, I tip my hat to you and your respect of spiders.

Great Pics, hon! :clap: Your girl is just beautiful!! :clap:
When I looked at the pictures; I caught myself scratching my collar area and and had to laugh....
I can't handle any of mine, since it seems the more exposure I have - the worse the reaction gets to the urticating hairs. I have to admit that the smithis are on a par, at least. The last time we bred them - I itched for a week.
Conversely - the last time we bred blondis - I only itched for 3 days, lmao!!
AWESOME PICS!! :clap:

Thanks Rochelle!
My A. geniculata seems to be the worst offender for hairs, my Brachys don't come close to those hairs! We're hoping to breed the blondi when the time comes!
