Got a new bug yesterday.

[Kenny]

picked up this gorgeous lady yesterday. I absolutely love this species (Bohmei). whether you like spiders or not, you gotta admit she's purdy lol

She's pretty! Love the colors!

Sorry, I hate spiders

 

[Floof]

Aaah, I love Brachy's! I thought about getting a boehmei at one point, but passed, figuring I'd save my space and money for a smithi or an auratum... I'm still kicking myself for not doing it. Especially since I never did quite get around to getting my smithi or auratum... Oh well. I'll just have to get all three.

She's beautiful, congrats on the new addition!

I hate spiders too. But I must say, she is really pretty.

You're leaving out emilia.

Nice T. Great color.

Mmm, yes, emilia, too. At my last pet store job, we had a couple nice little emilia slings. The thought crossed my mind more than once...

Emilia is by far my favorite Brachy. Highly under-rated imo. I'm waiting for my Male to molt, and hopefully that lady I just posted will make a Man out of him.

Ive got a few brachys, smithi and a curly hair (cant remember sci name). My smithi is about 2", ive had it since it was a little dot. Also have chaco golden knee, couple rose hairs that were given to me and a bird eater.

Ill have to check that out, thanks. Do your brachys tend to burrow a lot. Im not a real experienced keeper, just been involved for a few years and noticed that mine all tend to burrow to some extend...i take that back, my curly hair prefers hides that I offer him/her.

Way cool! Love the color!

Tarantulas are not spiders.

only my small ones. 3" + don't burrow at all. They don't even use their hides.

Tarantulas are not spiders.

Sure they are. They're just large hairy spiders , with a few distinct differences from the true spiders we often think of. The original Tarantula was the "wolf Spider".
