Message: <blockquote data-quote="Annie" data-source="post: 61583" data-attributes="member: 4185"><p>Thats such a bummer they are such shy spiders! I like the P. irmirnia for their gorgeous coloring, and I was hoping it would be an entertaining spider. Since I've got such a calm and... well... very inactive T already, I'm looking for something that actually does something. I used to be big on 'I want something that I can hold' but now that isn't important to me at all, so attitude sounds great! I'm trying to keep away from the Old World types for now, mainly because I've heard some horror stories about the very pretty Orange Bitey thing. I'm not picky on if it's a glamorous colorful spider, I'll take a spider with personality over something pretty any day. So anything come to mind now that you know more what I'm looking for? I really like your suggestions so far, versicolor is such a gorgeous spider, and I've heard they get prettier with every molt.</p></blockquote><p></p>
