She's big, around 5-5,5 inches have'nt seen her fully stretched out yet.

Thats huge mate! Definitely wish to see more of your collections! :D
Not much of a collection atm, this, 1.1 Parabuthus villosus and a Grammastola porteri :( Used to keep 400+ inverts but had to take a break because of work and some personal issues. Will get more scorps when spring comes though :) Also working on a website where i'll post pictures and articles from soon 10 years of keeping arachnids, will announce it here when it's up and running.
