Yeah...she is pretty defensive. We have been most impessed with her speed and agility. As a spiderling, she escaped her vial when Johnny was removing uneaten cricket remains. She ran onto his hand and then JUMPED onto his other hand which was almost a foot away. She landed squarely on all 8 legs. I have never seen anything like it. We treat her as defensive because she is quick to rear up and given her speed could either escape or bite in the blink of an eye. She is an adult. We have had her for about 2 years. They are definitley different than their avicularia cousins in temperment.

Right now we have her in a large petpal. She has a good sized web tunnel in the fake plants we have in there.
