Message: <blockquote data-quote="Josh's Frogs" data-source="post: 239089" data-attributes="member: 49228">Avicularia braunshauseni is also known as the Goliath Pink Toe.  Like many of its closely related species, this species has undergone a bit of an identity crisis. For now, we can agree that it is Avicularia braunshauseni and one of the prettiest tarantulas on the market. Here is a picture of an inch and a half spiderling, and a three inch juvenile next to a 5 inch young adult. Also like so many other Avicularia, it changes color and pattern drastically as it grows. These are called ontogenetic (age related) changes.[ATTACH=full]76278[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]76279[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]76280[/ATTACH]</blockquote>
