[QUOTE="Chubbs, post: 55329, member: 1084"] Why would you want to do this? It's a living animal. Well first off T.blondi (Goliath birdeaters) are very rarely available in the hobby and are extremely difficult to keep alive. Most that you will see are really T.stirmi being sold as T.blondi. Theraphosa in general are considered an advanced genus, because they can be difficult to keep alive in addition to being defensive. They're urticating hairs are among the most painful of any tarantula and Will kick them at the slightest disturbance. Therefore handling is a no-no. [/QUOTE]
