With our new order, the dealer added a new sling into it. It's labeled HG. Does anyone know what that is?

A Picture would be nice, unless it has not arrived. I am just gonna throw this out there, but it could stand for H. Gigas

Also, if you can't reach the dealer, look on their website to see what tarantulas they are selling that have those initials. For example Hysterocrates gigas. There are others that have the same initials, so don't assume it is that until you've done more homework.

Good Luck

Thanks everyone for your suggestions. We looked at the sellers site but didn't see anything with HG. The seller finally called back and said he threw in a Hysterocrates gigas.

We are looking up on it's care as it was quite a surprise to get one.

Mine's a 6" female, and is far from nasty. She'd rather dive into her water dish and sink to the bottom. Never seen a threat posture from her.
