Hi people im new to the game. I got a small smithi about 3 months ago and love the little thing and being hooked ever since. Always loved spiders but never had them. I work in a garage so i have plently of residents living there, mainly false widows. Anyway hes the smithi called none other than smithi lol









Today i went to the shop to get some crickets and a container for them as they go all over the place when ever i try and get one out and kinda walked out with another T. Heres sly the chilli rose







Thank you for looking

Oh my smithis not big. Shes pretty small. Id say around 2.5 inch leg span. My chille is huge tho. Atleast the size of the palm of my hand but shes very stroppy ive recently found :( so i dont think she'll be on my hand anytime soon lol

Shes funny in the way that shes very nosey. Shes in and out of her shelter like a yoyo but it wasnt that funny wen a simple little touch on the back leg and she turned and threat posed in about half a second! Shelter went back on and she was kicking hairs a gooden hopefully just pmt lol

Id say red knee as shes still my fav one. Im having a smithi tattooed on my left hand with smithi written across my fingers. Just hope that my smithi dont see it and think its a real one and chow down lol. That would be a bad day!

My Haitian is supposedly "aggressive" some days he is, but most days I can fill his water, take carcasses out, move him and hes generally unbothered. He rarely ever threats towards me. So maybe these guys have personalities after all :p

Yea i defo think so tbh. My chille seems to have a real attitude problem. Im guessing that shes either never been handled ever or maybe wild caught or just stroppy, i dunno
