    gorgeous spider and great pics!

    sorry to hear about the mated female, hope you get another chance soon.
    you'd definitely have a customer over here for a sling or two

    but yeah i do really like these...

    (they're another reason Pokies are over-rated!)

    what was that? no i didn't say anything!

        This is the one and only species i vow never to have anything to do with again!

        I swear they scare me to death, we have 2 juveniles, male and female but related so won't be bred.

        I remember rehoming them once, and all i can say is i haven't lifted the lid of their tanks since and i won't be rehoming them when they are bigger, that will be the OH's job!

        All i remember is lifting the lid off one and then it has dissappeared, found it on the wall and shoved a pot over it, and it was on its back, all legs and fangs in the air so i chucked it in the tank and it nearly made a dash for it again!

        I was shaking afterwards

        I really don't want them, but OH wouldn't have it any other way.

        Give me a baboon (other baboon), pokie, hap, flickypelma, birdeater whatever anyday, just not this one!!!

        Can't deny they look gorgeous, and if we had bought them as adults with tanks at ready then i don't think i would mind so much, but they are going to need rehoming in the future and i am not looking forward to that day
