[Suzanne09]

I am looking to sell my female tarantula. She is coming up to 10 years old

Hi it would help if you put up some pics and price you are looking for?

I'm going to make an educated guess at this. You purchased her as a sling labeled as Brachypelma smithi. Ten years ago, that name was accurate. A few years ago, there was a revision on this species. They are now known as Brachypelma hamorii (Mexican Red Knee). Ex Brachypelma annitha (Mexican "Giant" Red Knee) is now known as the Brachypelma smithi. It is more likely that you have the hobby form Brachypelma hamorii but pictures would help.

Hello, yes I will upload some pictures. She is indeed a Mexican Red Knee (sorry if I got the name wrong).
We also thought it was a boy, hence why she has the name Fred (a friend and ex colleague has sexed her as a female).
I don't want her to go to a home where she sits in a tiny Tupperware box. She has her heat pad that she loves (this is obviously all included with her).

Also she will come with terrarium, water bowl etc. I'm afraid I won't post her, she will be too scared and is a family pet. I'm just looking for a good home for her really

She's a big beautiful girl! I hope you find a wonderful home for her!

I'd take her but I'm on the wrong side of the pond. Good luck

 

[Suzanne09]

No problem. Thank you anyway

We'd take her but have no means of getting to you

She's a big beautiful girl! I hope you find a wonderful home for her!

Thank you!

Hey @Suzanne09 I may be able to offer her a home if she still needs one
