Please note: one of my P. Irminias used to regularly shoot poop at me... I got pooped in my face once too :biggrin:For what it's worth, I can deal with a moderately defensive tarantula (Psalmo) far moreso than one that'll shoot poop at me (Avic).
Fangs are much less gross.
You're not supposed to gut load crickets with laxatives.
Oh, that's easy: Get an A. diversipes sling. They usually come with attitude from babysize onTruat me jf i could id take her off your hands
I got an A.braunshauseni sling who wants to take over the world already; it's going to be interesting when I have to deal with a 6 inch sassy fluff ball.Oh, that's easy: Get an A. diversipes sling. They usually come with attitude from babysize on
This one didn't until the last few months strangely. She was 2 years old when I got her(so I was told) and I've had her a little over a year. She was just always hiding before. Now she wants to conquer the world. Silly T's!
Maybe two, I'll be saving the space, and money for some pokies down the line.
Hehe wait a year or so just to see if you like the extra sassy-ness of your psalmo first, thought I personally like rufilata and regalis (this one makes a great first pokie).
Yes it's gonna be a while before any pokies arrive at my door step. I'm not worried about any sassy behavior, but rather the severe amount teleporting the blue fang sling did.
Blue fang is a turtle next to a P. cam:laugh:
Keep in mind they grow pretty quick and reach up to 7"+, so be prepared for frequent cage upgrades
That they do, their growth per molt is simply astounding....one of the many things I love about them.....that and their extreme hunting skills, even as small slings.Keep in mind they grow pretty quick and reach up to 7"+, so be prepared for frequent cage upgrades
Not to mention many are more visible than the rest of their genus. For a display spider out of the Psalmopoeus genus I'd always suggest these. The rest are way more secretive.That they do, their growth per molt is simply astounding....one of the many things I love about them.....that and their extreme hunting skills, even as small slings.
I had 2, one died for unknown reasons. These are THE slowest growing Avics ever for me. I have two other Avics that are only 1 yr old, my Kwitara River is 2.5 yr old, and the other 2 Avics are 2.5x larger easily. Even more odd Kwitara's get larger than the other 2 species of Avic I own too...
I love my little girl too, wouldn't she be as reclusive as my P. irminias and usually only getting a glimpse of her. They're lovely T's, for sure, but not a good choice if someone wants a display spider that's often visible.
What a scaredy cat!!
