well another month means i must have more spiders since the shop had a new order in. (swear he does it just to make me part with cash)
picked up two slings, Ceratogyrus darlingi and Poecilotheria miranda.
The baboon im fairly well up on, ive seen adults of that species and know what i'm in for and so on.
However the pokkie will be my first, (though I do have a Cyriopagopus sp so have no worries about aboreals) I seem to see in a few places that the miranda is somewhat placid for a pokkie and slower than the rest?
Now I have no intentions of handling any of my spiders, however there occasionally comes a time where physical contact is needed. (be it full handling or just a nudge due to not having equipment to hand) So what should I expect from a miranda once it reaches beyond the 2" mark?
