New OBT

Got this one from Seven Wonders Reptiles on Friday:

I laughed when I saw how the shipping container was labeled:

Kinda like that but with tarantulas!!

In all seriousness, they're a beautiful T when they aren't up to no good.

Ahh, another hobby icon. Love them, I want a rcf. Funny little spazoids.

 

[Whitelightning777]

The RCF is the only way to go for that one. I totally agree.

I tried looking it up, but can't seem to figure this one out. What is an RCF?

 

[Whitelightning777]

Red color form, which is the bright orange one. The regular one looks totally different and isn't as popular.

I'm enjoying the heck of my new guy. He's got a little web nest in the back of the enclosure under the plants, but once the lights go out, he's all over the place. I have to look around to find him. I dropped a roach in there yesterday, but didn't see him go for it. Couldn't find it today, so its either well hidden, or he ate it.

Which one is mine?

These are the color forms. The typical color form TCF is much plainer in appearance and is called the starburst baboon, not OBT.

Yeah… "Coffee colored bitey thing" just doesn't have the same ring to it.
