im pretty sure a member here and on T.us(skippy) has or, had one. i remember seeing pics he posted of an adult female he picked up at an SFBATS meeting last year.
but i certainly have not seen them for sale in a long while.

Cheetamo13, or jeremy, is huge into thrixopelma. If I recall correctly he has bred them a few times. Only problem is he is never on anymore.
He didnt show up to the last years bug hunt either.
honestly I havent seen them around in about 2 years. though I admit I havent really looked for them.
The whole Thrixopelma genus is crazy hair flickers, so I stay away if possible. though I wont part with my T. ockerti for nothing.

I have two females here but there is no males anywhere found
My T cyaneolum wasn't mean at all...he was one of the few T's I've ever seen who not only enjoyed to be held but demanded it at least once a day. I called him Velcro spider because he'd desperately try to climb until I got my hand under him and got him out on my arm...then getting him back into his enclosure was INSANELY difficult.
Once he was on you it was like trying to get fuzz off of velcro LOL, and he'd poo on me at least twice...often huddling down against my wristveins and refusing to move.
He never kicked either, but if he didn't want to be handled he'd swing his behind around like a purse and hunch down against the ground sort've like an Avicularia.

Really? :wall:
Oh yeah...he was a touch skittish if you tried to handle him when he didn't want to be, he'd swing his behind around like a purse. Once he was ready though he'd cling to my arm and never once threatened me at any time, only time he ever kicked was when I first got him out of the container from the LPS.
He was truly irreplaceable
...I still miss him.
