Awesome. I can handle her and everything. But every now and again she gets in a mood and I don't handle her. Now the black earth tiger I don't even touch.

Re: Love my tarantulas

Pretty cool! One of my spiders is also very tolerable of handling, but since i overreact to their hairs i never touch mine (if i touch the bedding my skin is itchy and irritated for several days)

That's awesome you can handle yours too. That sucks about the hairs. What kinds do you have?

That's awesome. And yea I feel you on the tarantula lover part. Most of my friends think I'm nuts and my parents say they will spend the night at my house. Lol

Re: Love my tarantulas

Tsubaki is good at convincing people that spiders are adorable with she talks about them though lol.

Every so often I catch myself thinking of doing a nice set up when I get my house. NO idea what kind, but pretty sure it will be something bigbut calm enough to handle...just in case I get the nerve up lol

Re: Love my tarantulas

Very nice! I have a "Chilean tiger rump"; WC- I've had varying opinions from experts on the actual species, but seems like Euathlus parvulus(formerly Paraphysa parvula) or something closely related...looks exactly like your "goldburst" but with a metallic green carapace instead of gold. Real sweet girl, very relaxed and easy to handle. Love the dwarfs.

They are interesting animals. I've always been intrigued by them. All you have to do is put a some substrate in ( enough that they can dig) and a hide. You can also put some fake plants in and just let them go

This smells to me like a Brachypelma Smithi or even better, Grammostola Pulchripes
