Just had to add a short incident, I gave her a cricket seeing it looked hungry. I only had bigger crickets, not the large say medium. She took it down, when I moved the enclosure she must have been disturbed she dragged It with her all over the place lol.

Hello and thank you, I handle all except the Borneo black and the ornamentals. I wouldn't advise handling any Tarantulas, unless you are prepared for the consequences lol. My first ever interaction, was a king baboon that bit me.

Just logged on, found my Psalmopoeus irminia /Venezuelan sun tiger sling molted. Its just started to get its adult coloration on the abdomen, in my opinion one of the most striking and beautiful T's when matured. I will add a photo of the T, as soon as its possible don't want to disturb it. I almost forgot, two new additions at last my B.smithi and a Pamphobeteus Machalla. Should have them in an hour, will post photos.
