I'm ashamed to admit I never wanted this little freebie.
I only have it because I forgot to leave a comment in the additional information about your order section. Last year I placed an order containing 4 different species and as I was browsing through stock I'd noticed that a free spider was available it was a P cambridgei sling which to be honest I had no desire to ever own. Anyhow after a few hours searching and deciding I'd got 4 species added to my order I looked at the clock and it was almost 3am so I quickly went to the checkout and paid job done order placed.
Fast forward 2 days order arrives and goes a little like this vial 1 T pruriens sling, vial 2 A braunshauseni sling, vial 3 B klaasi sling and finally vial 4 P cambridgei sling at this point I knew what I'd done or not done in this case so vial 5 P bromelicola sling so my order was complete with the added pain of a tarantula I never wanted.
I had thoughts flying through my head like I'll give it to friend who's wanting to start collecting not a wise thought really, Then a eureka moment I'll give it to a member on here I'll even pay the shipping, So I set up a temporary enclosure and in went said sling almost instantly it started to web so as I was feeding my new arrivals I couldn't leave this guy/girl out so it too got a cricket.
Today it had it's 5th moult in my care it was sat stretching out and it allowed me a peek in to it's world, to say I was amazed at how beautiful it's become is an understatement. Today this tarantula the 1i never wanted is now a tarantula I never want to leave my collection. I wanted to share a little picture to show what a terrible mistake I almost made
