[QUOTE="Chubbs, post: 66536, member: 1084"] Most Avicularia can be heavy webbers depending on how they are housed. I think A.versicolor and A.purpurea tend to be the heaviest webbing out of them all. Psalmopoeus are up there as well, same with Iridopelma. It really depends on what exactly counts as heavy webbing to you I suppose. Pokies are probably among the least webby arboreals, and are usually out in the open, hence why they're often considered one of the few OWs that make good display species. I've noticed that younger ones will sometimes web fairly heavily, but as they get larger they spin less and less. Same goes for H.maculata, although adults still tend to web a bit more than pokies, however it's usually just in one corner, they don't go crazy with it like some other baboons do. [/QUOTE]
