I know since I do not have a picture to help, it makes it more difficult for someone to help but someone here will know what I am describing.....
My wife and I went to a LPS and saw three tarantulas labeled "Pink Toed Tarantulas", all together in one tank. They were indeed Pink Toed but were the biggest kind I have ever seen. I would say their leg span was ever bit of 5 inches. Off black in color with hints of a dark gray on the abdomen. Nothing colorful and not a glossy black like Avercularia avecularia Hairs were not thick and long. We went home and tried to ID these ourselves an the closest thing we came across was an A. Urticans
Anyone have an idea? We were wanting to know temperment and whether or not they can be handled, etc.
Any help would be appreciated......
Thanks
