Brachypelma albopilosum "True" form

[Avicularia Kael]

She is so feisty...

 

[Avicularia Kael]

She has eaten a cricket a little small for her and is currently eating a delicious superworm.

 

[Avicularia Kael]

I don't know if you could see it in the pictures, but she is missing one of her front legs.

That shouldn't be a problem, nice tarantula!

 

[Avicularia Kael]

I know I shouldn't have, but I kinda power fed her... As with most of my other T's.

Well that was a pretty mellow response! I think she's getting to that stage after Christmas dinner where you're full, but "just one more" won't hurt.

 

[Avicularia Kael]

That's actually the most exciting take down she has given.

 

[Avicularia Kael]

She has been eating well and has not grown at all haha!

 

[Avic]

Brachypelmas are painfully slow growers. Lol. Fantastic T's tho.

 

[ilovebrachys]

Nice to see another proud owner of a Brachy! enjoy her she looks lovely-like @Avic said they are such slow growers but so worth the wait!

 

[Hemolymph]

Well not all Brachypelma are slow growing, some are quite fast.

@Hemolymph is right...not all Brachypelma's are slow growing. @Avic you should open your mind to the other Brachypelma's...you would be suprised with other species besides the hobby norm.
