My first tarantula years ago, was 3" when purchased so I have no idea how old at that time. But I managed to keep her for 12 years before having to sell her because a common-law girlfriend thought she was creepy.

The ones I have now, the oldest is an A. seemani at about 4 yrs old.

The spider probably lived on much longer than that relationship did. D'oh!

Poor decisions we make when thinking with the little head. lol

I couldent be with a girl that would want me to get rid of my spiders, any girl that is sad enough not to get into a relationship because of a few spiders, then she is not worth having anyway.

I only started collecting again recently but my oldest tarantula would be a wc i brought from a pet shop. I had it for 5 years, but it was mature when i brought it so im guessing 8 -15yrs old.

I bought my H. lividum and my P. murinus about 3 years ago. The lividum was about dime size and the murinus was a little over 2.5".
