[QUOTE="TheFredricus, post: 200680, member: 33482"] The couple who sold the T to me said that she was 5-6 years old, which I'm not sure I believe if it's a mature female, also considering the size of her head and fangs. I will contact them tomorrow and see if I can get any more information. But it's hard since they got it from some aquantice who knew a lady who had the spider, plus the fact that they knew absolutely nothing about tarantulas. They didn't even know that females live longer than males and thought that keeping tarantulas with rocks for substrate and throwing in 10 crickets at a time was a good idea... to mention some things. One of her spineretts have been bitten off and one of the lungs look swollen and strange, but she did eat once before molting. [/QUOTE]
