Nah, not in europe. I know a dealer in Denmark who has the real Theraphosa blondi spiderlings for sale and also a few dealers in Germany.I would guess that one of the hardest to find is the blondi, as it doesn't seem to want to breed too easily. So within the hobby, I'd say they're the hardest to get your fingers on.
In the wild - haven't the slightest idea.
Poecilotheria smithi is in no way common in the UK, you are misinformed.For example in the UK p.smithi's are as common as g.roseas here.
But in the U.S. p.mithi's are rare.
P.s I know, this forum rocks
Agreed! not common in europe either!Poecilotheria smithi is in no way common in the UK, you are misinformed.
Compared to many other species, there is a low count, as they generally produce few young, from what I've heard.Nah, not in europe. I know a dealer in Denmark who has the real Theraphosa blondi spiderlings for sale and also a few dealers in Germany.
It aslo depends where in this world you live and knowledge about species, dealers ect ect. I have been in this hobby for a few years and i hear about theraphosidae species that are new to all the time. Have a look at the T-store forum witch is a better forum than AB
Although P. smithi is more common over sea's than here in the US, Im pretty sure it was close to being extinct in the hobby worldwide just a few years ago. Comparing it to G. rosea is a poor example, as a few other people already mentioned.For example in the UK p.smithi's are as common as g.roseas here.
But in the U.S. p.mithi's are rare.

Some years ago they where quite common. They sac is usually from 30-100 as i have heard. Phalagorns female made of 176 slings from one sac witch must be a record.Compared to many other species, there is a low count, as they generally produce few young, from what I've heard.
