Haplopelma something another part 2

[Atx13]

Well... I have a serious soft spot for Haplopelmas, and if they keep getting them, I'm gonna keep buying them... lol
Here is my newest addition a Haplopelma(I assume this is the real Longipes)
Labeled as a "Thai Tiger" at the pet shop. I suck at taking pictures, and my girlfriend won't take one until the little one is settled( he/she is "Teleporting" and throwing threat displays like we stole something from 'em)

<3! Love the grey and black, looks like she's dressed for a ****tail party!

This little one is becoming my favorite for sure, finally let me get the deli cup out of her home.. and attacked her leaf after I took it out, has calmed down some but is still pretty annoyed.

Yes, definitely should be on the cat walk, she looks very glamorous.

Sadly it looks like she will be my first haplopelma to become a pet hole as well...

Well, you know what these super models are like. Try putting a red carpet in for her, she might enjoy strutting up and down on it. If not , she will still put in guest appearances occasionally

omg, don't want that! I've never been bitten by a t but my horse has ripped lumps out of loads of people ( we think his castration was bodged he is very stallion like and attacks dogs, cats, pigeons, humans, and two big rubber horse toys hanging outside his stable. )

Your horse sounds like quite the character lol.

P.Lugardi(Forthall Baboon i believe is the common name).. 4" Female, first and only bite. I was 15 or 16 at the time as well.

God, he is a nutcase. I have ridden over five hundred horses in my career and never met one like him, I saw him chase a helicopter across the field once, he ripped one of his shoes off in the pursuit. I'm expecting to see him on crime watch or wildest police chases one day.

Oww I bet it was painful tho.

i expected far worse, after reading some of the OW bite reports on the web.
I ran a low grade fever(never above 101 degrees), the bite area(my left index finger) was pretty stiff, and itched.. and i had a slightly upset stomach.
All of that lasted about 12 hours or so, I took 2 benadryl and a 4 regular asprin right after the fact.
The day after my finger was still pretty sore, but all other effects of the bite had passed.

even after the fact, I was more worried I hurt her..I kind of jumped.. But the whole incident was my fault, i stuck my hand near her webbing and she was just defending her home..

They can be touchy, I don't go for stroppy ts, I can see the appeal, they are beautiful and challenging but not my idea of fun, I like cute and sweet.

I might broaden my horizons in the new year, depends what is in the shops who looks like they need a home. The bad tempered ones seem unhappy to me, there was one in the shop biting its water bowl, looked like a total savage maybe they are the ones who need a home and shop life don't agree with them.
