Just saying my P cambridgei bit my straw that I used to prod food into moving rehousing etc also threw a threat pose almost every time I open the enclosure. theres one threat pose about 5 days after a molt when I was trying to feed him.
Well, she is quite stunning, however and after reading some replies it might be better to wait a bit before getting one.
Ybyrapora i keep searching, but unfortunately i cannot find it anywhere in Europe. Will keep looking thou..
I've never seen any defensive behaviour from either of mine, both were skittish/flighty when smaller but calmed down a lot once they put on some size, my main issue with them is that I basically never saw my first one and the second one's been much the same
Yeah, they're not that common, I did check a bunch of UK sites that ship to the EU and none have them at the moment.
Yeah as did I but Caribena versicolor almost look as goodI've never seen any defensive behaviour from either of mine, both were skittish/flighty when smaller but calmed down a lot once they put on some size, my main issue with them is that I basically never saw my first one and the second one's been much the same

As long as you give lots of ventilation any Avic can be a beginner
Both what’s? Of the avocado you mentioned? How big are they? Here are both of my C versicolor slings enclosure they are about 3/4 of a in just make sure you have lots of ventilation they are in 32oz deli cups. One row of lightly spread holes at the substrate lvl then one or 2 very close line of holes around the top and lots of holes on the lid. Send me pictures of the enclosure pictures and tarantula sizes if you can.
Both meaning, Avicularia cf. aurantiaca and Avicularia sp. "Kwitara". Also they both have 1,5cm. Cross ventilation as you can see in my avic versicolor enclosure shouldn't be much of a problem.
Unfortunately Chromatopelma cyaneopubescens comes hard to find, will try to get one eventually but its pretty much like the Ybyrapora, when i find one ill try to get it.
They look better as adults in my opinion

Yeah i just saw it, however is like you just said, i need to check for more reviews (only 9 in FB). The price seems good... Although i do not know the L3 size..
L3 means 3rd instar or the slings 3rd molt, considering a 2i is about .5 inch, a 3i would be about .75inch to 1 inch (DLS).
Just curious how long does it take a 1 month old C versicolor sling until it goes into premolt? It’s 3rd I so not melted out of that yet any estimates?
Hit me with ambient temps and your feed rate/size of feeder, smaller size of enclosure is correlated with faster growth (I think smaller size enclosure, just means more likely to find food but maybe there's some other aspect I don't know about!). Those variables can make growth rate 3-5x faster than a colder, less fed sling
I am afraid that they only ship above 50€ which is kinda pricey for a store that i do not know.
Oh man, in the us $50 is how much you have to pay for just shipping for ANY slings and a gbb 2i sling is easily around 50$ regardless, Ill see if I can find more reviews or anything!
Oh, are they that expensive over there? I already find a couple of stores, and maybe a breeder with Ybyrapora diversipes available.. so, fingers crossed.
Well that is catastrophic, 400$ its arround 350€ with exchange. Still, why do people buy so many slings? Breeding purpose or just big collections?
