I must be the worlds biggest optimist . I assume there's a logical explanation and that the specimens will still get to you.
I blooming well hope so at any rate

I heard about the duck billed pterinochilus sp the other day, very similar to a poecelotheria platipus.

And untill someone goes to Peru and gets some there wont be, as UK captive ones never exsisted.

1/ The whole story about them being bought from a dealer who didnt know what they were, but he did is unbelievable considering know one knows what to look for in Pamphobeteus sp at present to tell the species apart.

2/ He went to Peru (where he got his photographs) to study how to keep them B******s, he might have went on a trip to Peru but it was not to study how to keep his captives see no 1

3/In the photographs (in the wild) all the plants are correct for being in the jungle, in another of his threads showing his well planted up tank for a goliath, he cannot even get the plants right, he has a bog plant planted next to a palm tree, which drinks lots of water, so how come he couldnt get the tank correct in the second one? especially as he had plants in there that would not survive a dry season

4/ He would never post pics up of his set up for keeping them, at a distance so you could see how he was doing it

5/His first eggsac was destroyed in the "summer heatwave" in the attic, what a bunch of bull, the summer heatwave was in April (before his post was put up), and last summer was wet so wet in fact that there was the worst floods in the UK for decades................

6/ no one has any spiderlings.....................anyone with a yes i have some from him?

7/ the dead specimen(s) never appeared at the Natural History Museum, with me, Andy Smith, Richard Gallon, or Martin Nicholas.................. not that he actually wanted to get a dead specimen disected so the spider could be "clasified".

8/ It was nothing but a hoax which lots of people bit into and believed and the ones wgho did not believe him were ....................jealous...............yea right.

C'mon Craig, produce the evidence, send deads to the BM or to Martin or someone, or post some pics of thier set up, or even better still meet one of the commitee members (Martin comes to mind) with a live one.

Go on prove me wrong

There's always the original chicken spider, the Selenotypus plumipes, reported in the "Emu" for running off with small guinea fowl (mind you it was 100 years ago). Anyway who wants a chicken spider? can you imagine how much it'd cost to keep one?
