That was an amusing story. Makes me glad I am not an OBT lover. If I ever had a crazed, orange bolt of lightning gliding across my ceiling my girl friend would probably move out, never to return.

If they're really agitated in the shipping container, I usually give them some time to cool down before I transfer them. Both of my current OBTs are downright mellow, it's my parahybana you have to watch out for. {D
Same here, though my para is also pretty tame. My juvi blondi is my top bitey thing. The speediest is my Selenocosmia crassipes, followed by my P irminia (when I see it, it's by far the most reclusive I have) and my P. rufilata!

i hate it when new T's do that. my H.Lividum sling was a hassle to get into his deli cup. the damn thing bolted as soon as I opened his small shipping vial.

Had this been a sling, that would be one thing. She had just attempted a mating before coming to me (so not a tiny sling! hehe...)

We named her Hisoka, after my favorite HunterxHunter character (fast, psychotic, red-head badass - click the link there to see the picture on why it is so apropos).

i'd be in panic if i had a T do that. i dont handle mine so trying to catch the meanest of the bunch would be MAD.

how'd you get her down? i read that u sprayed water.. but did you just grab her?
