My first OBT has never lost her hyper-defensive attitude - this is what I get every time I open her enclosure to feed her.

Your color forms are phenomenal, where do you get pure forms like this?
They are wild caught stock from different localities across Africa, ranging from Tanzania through Kenya and Mozambique.

I find way too much emphasis is put on this species being defensive and scary and not enough on what a joy they are to own. I love the elaborate webbing and mine has never given me a single threat pose.

Yes, exactly like the photo :)
Saw a video of some wild adult females, absolutely stunning. Definitely one on my list whenever I finally find them.

Me and some friends are exporting more localities of murinus to US in a week or so.
What localities did you guys end up exporting? I recently added a couple to my lot, wonder if I happened to end up with any of them.
