Just curious where people stand on this.
N. incei are incredible webbers, far more interesting than my GBBs.Just curious where people stand on this.
That's exactly why I like Ts that web. I observe my webbers and incei does the most changes to webbing pattern for what I own. They are way overlooked as a species. GBBs are heavy, thick webbers, but my GBBs never made something like my incei do.I started with true spiders that live in webs, so I am fond of tarantulas that web, even if you don't always get to see them. It's neat to see how they modify their enclosures over time.
I will probably get some of those incei one day. (For webbers, I currently have two Avicularia avicularia, one 2.25" Chromatopelma cyaneopubescens, and one 2" Dolichothele diamantinensis.)That's exactly why I like Ts that web.

Get Cold Bloods N. incei Gold, I have 2 of his Golds, 3 normals, they are great! Great eaters, they do not disappoint in any way IMO.I will probably get some of those incei one day.

Luckily for us, there is a tarantula to suit almost every taste: webbers, burrowers, arboreals, terrestrials that sit out in the open, large, small, defensive, docile, fast, slow....I may be in the minority here, but I don't prefer lots of webbing. . . . Some of them are very beautiful indeed, but if they're hidden by web most of the time, I would enjoy owning them a lot less. That's just me, though.
I wouldn't necessarily exclude any tarantula that has a lot of web in that case.I may be in the minority here, but I don't prefer lots of webbing. I can try to explain my line of thinking on the subject...I view tarantulas to be almost in the same vein as tropical fish, in the sense that the primary reason to have them isn't to pet them, but rather to see them in all their beautiful shapes and colors. My goal with them is not to build a large collection, but eventually to have several large display Ts (probably all NW terrestrials) that will be in glass aquariums throughout my house so I can enjoy looking at them easily. Some species are described as 'ghosts' or 'pet holes' and that's just not what I'm after.
