New pink toe :)

[AngelOtter]

Man it's been so long since I posted!
Anyway I picked up a new T, and just wanted to confirm the sp. It was just listed as "Pink toe" so I'm assuming it's an Avicularia avicularia? I just want to be sure, it's my first pink toe.
Also feel free to advise me on my enclosure, I do mist one side (which ever side the spider is not on) once a day.
She's a lovely thing, I got to handle her a bit when I transferred her (not on purpose, they are quite fast!).

Hello
That's not an Avicularia Avicularia, not from what I can see on the picture. The abdomen colors are not the usual, avic avic. Beautiful T indeed, please post your pic in the avic section if you want to. Check the link below.

Hmm, I wonder what it is then? I don't mind either way, my heart wasn't set on an Avic Avic.
I will post there as well, maybe someone can ID Dahlia for me

Thank you, please feel free to add more or discuss avics there.

Don't know how close this resembles it, but like this one is an Avic sp. Peru purple juvenile.

That looks pretty similar, I will have to get a pic with the lid off tomorrow, so it's more clear.

Well hope it helps, I'm an avic fanatic. Love the genus a lot, not aggressive and stunning to say the least. Will be acquiring more specimens, hopefully by the 15th of march.

So what I'm actually saying is, I don't care what avid that is its Stunning !!!

 

[AngelOtter]

I've always wanted one, and it was kind of an impulse buy, I went in to look at geckos originally. She's been lovely so far, not aggressive at all, and no escape attempts beside when I first transferred her.

Lovely genus, I can honestly say the only arboreal I handle without a worry.

 

[AngelOtter]

I don't handle my Ts very often, but I like being able to do things in the tank without having to worry. And I have all terrestrial Ts right now, so she's something a bit different.

You will love the genus, and its addictive.
