[QUOTE="Enn49, post: 55342, member: 3458"] If you really want a large tarantula, you'd be better off getting a Lasiodora parahybana (Brazilian salmon pink birdeater). They are very easy to rear, great feeders and very fast growers reaching around 8" dls although they can get bigger. They also kick hairs that can be painful though. Handling Ts is not recommended as they are easily startled and a jump or fall can seriously injure or even kill them. I think there is a thread somewhere saying Backwater are not a good place to buy but I believe Jamie's Tarantulas are good. Sorry I'm in the UK so if I'm wrong I apologise. [/QUOTE]
