Pumpkin patch

[Lisasravenwolf]

Hey everyone, I just bought a pumpkin patch tarantula which I've been wanting for a few years now. Does anyone know from the picture I posted if this is the small variant or large variant? The body length is roughly 1/2 inch in length or a little less.

I have only kept large, but I know there's differences in size between large and small think small grows to about 2 .5 inches and the large 3-4 inches. Best bet is to ask were you brought from see if they can track it down for you.

Thank you,I can ask the store but don't think they will know since the are a small country store. But won't hurt to ask anyways.

I have only kept the large species. I'm not sure how to tell other than watching them grow. Mine almost never come out of therir hide. It's too bad because they are gorgeous! Best of luck to you!

I thought maybe there was a color or pattern difference between the 2 but I'll just have to watch it grow lol

Here's mine eating and not being photogenic. I get a 50-50 shot it will be out and about. Quite the response when food gets dropped in though.
