Message: <blockquote data-quote="MassExodus" data-source="post: 102367" data-attributes="member: 4086">So I picked up a Euathlus sp tiger from Chris Shi on fauna classifieds. I'd been thinking of a red or yellow for some time, and reading about the genus, which apparently needs some work, like many. I kept reading how docile, curious and gentle they were so it came as no surprise when I opened the container and she slowly crawled right out on my hand and started exploring. Of course I was immediately smitten <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> I've had some docile spiders, but none like this. None so curious and unafraid of me. Hearing how active they were, I set her up semi arboreal. She hasnt touched the ground yet, but shes explored all the bark and the walls. I'm finding it extremely difficult to let her settle in before taking her out again. I highly recommend this species, or genus, to everyone.</blockquote>
