I have talked about this a few times, but, my experience with OBT's doesn't compare much at all to the defensiveness of other spiders In my collection and i've never understood their reputation as the most challenging or a "rite of passage" to an "advanced keeper".
Why this species in particular??
I open the P. murinus enclosures for watering (for ex.) and they flee into their web tunnels. Do the same with most any Asian (And maybe even my T. vagans ) and they are immediately reared up and slapping.
I just don't understand where the hype and stigma of this particular species came from. In my experience, they are an averagely manageable old world.
