Very depressed actually.. I've recently seen a picture of a Antilles Pinktoe (a. versicolor), and I found it very beautiful because of its color.. seriously! After that I tried to check what the new world tarantulas look like. WOW! Nice color, less venomous than the old world ts.. so I decided to take a look at the old books here. -__________-' no new worlds huh? I said. Only in america or somewhere in Mexico? well.. that's nice.. my goodness, africa doesn't have those colorful stuff huh? ahhh.. right when I got excited.. of getting one..

Africa is a pretty big continent and the spiders you listed are not in West Africa, besides, H. Maculata also seems identical to the Calceatum. I do not plan on getting more old world since their numbers are decreasing, and they're dangerous as well. :< I just want a friendly new world, and chill with it at times. S. Calceatum is just too aggressive for me, I guess. But let me tell you a short autobiography of mine lol. :)

When I was a kid, I would always take care of true spiders a lot and let them fight. They were pretty beast and would never lose. Spider fighting is very common in our country. There was this day when my mom noticed that I love them arachnids while she was in Manila City (Capital of PH) and she told a workmate friend of hers to try and get the best fighting spider species in the Philippines, I guess. I was about 5 and I couldn't remember what I did. When it arrived I was completely shocked with the different kinds of colors in a neat leaf-kind of container for them (they're pretty great at making them). Perhaps because of my amazement I freed them in the leaves of my house, from what I've heard today. I probably knew that I wouldn't be able to feed them, haha! :] it's a cute story i guess. But I don't really have a bigger story than that. That's why I'm kinda unsatisfied, lol.
