If what you mean by a Brazilian black and white to be a Brazilopelma colloratvillosum, they're quite docile and calm as adults in general.
Obviously a lot depends on the individual spider as even the most docile species can bite and have "off days"
You will find that a lot of people on here don't handle their spiders, not for the fact of getting bitten (although that is a concern) but just in case the spider gets hurt, even a small fall can cause fatal damage.
everyone to their own though, i have to admit i handle some of my more docile spiders more than i should when cleaning out and one day complacency will probably get the better of me......again !!

It's a captive bred (Nhandu coloratovillosus)New species to the US hobby in late '98, adults are still quite hard to obtain. They are fuzzy as adults with black and white banding on leg segments, with pink tipped setae...real sweet looking, but are aggressive! Can reach 6.5" in leg span.
this is the way it was advertised where I bought it
and your right it realy all depend's on the spider itself on how it's gunna react to being handled

Ah right, though still not that agressive in general i think i'm right in saying(unless having a bad day of course). I remember reading somewhere that someone had sub adults that were a bit nervous and twitchy but their adult was very handleable
You keep N coloratovillosus the same way as you would an A geniculata i believe, not quite as humid.
Very nice looking as adults !!Last edited by Guest; 13-05-07, 06:45 PM.
