Message: <blockquote data-quote="Megan Wright" data-source="post: 52703" data-attributes="member: 4112"><p>I was going to buy an A. versicolor before I found my G. pulchripes, but I changed my mind because the Avic was way too expensive for what it was (barely 1/2", unsexed, they wanted $60). The one I got was healthier, confirmed female, and to me that was a better deal. However, Avics are actually the tarantulas that sparked my interest in T's as a child (besides my lifelong love for the spiders I found outside). I was amazed that something could be that colorful naturally! So then I started researching and getting my hopes up, and then (because I was still a child in my parents home) my mom nixed that idea super fast ): But now that I'm on my own, it's tarantula time!</p></blockquote><p></p>
