how agressive

[Rebecca Burrett]

We was given an A.Seemanni, it had been to at last three other people before finding a nice perminant home with me.
The only thing is that it is mucj more aggressive than the other two that we have owned, the slightest movement of the pot sends it in to a frenzy, and if we have to move it pot {being moved twice so far} it's pratically on its back with aggression, is this about normal or could it of beeb provoked and now always ready to defend it's self.
Thanks in advance.

I have heard of this behavior before with a. seemani,(and other "docile" species for that matter) particularly with WC ones. Every tarantula is unique, and when we talk about species being docile, we are speaking in generalities. There are always exceptions. I expect that when it gets accustomed to its new home, it may settle down a bit, but it will probably remain more defensive than your other ones.

my A.Seemani isnt aggresive but is very skittish they are skittish by nature right?

Hi Rebecca

I have two ( see my collection thread ) , one is calm but the other is very jumpy and rears up at me quite often !!

Every spider has its own personality i guess so dont take it personally
