Tarantulas, snakes, lizards and crawlies - "leafs what walk" 16/11/13
Now you can't say I didn't warn you with the title. Here's a few of my less common pets, some are new ones.
This is Troodon (Troodon - "Wounding tooth"). She's an adult female salmon pink tarantula which are regarded as one of the biggest species in the world.
Check how big she is
This is her mate Thunder who I got as a freebie in 2004. These two are perfect for showing the difference between adult male and female tarantulas. The adult males are usually much leggier than the stocky girls.
Sluagh is an African horned baboon tarantula, these are quite defensive ones and they have a curious looking horn on the carapace. Last I checked no one knew what the purpose of this was.
Threat posture
Shadow is just one is the 3 Brazilian Black tarantulas I have. He's a sub-adult male.
This one is Sniper, a young female chaco gold knee, she was about the size of an ant when I got her 4 years ago
This is usually the one everyone is interested to see. This is Storm, a young male Goliath bird eater. This tarantula holds the record for biggest tarantula in the world with a leg span of up to 13".
Here's him on my hand, he's got a lot of growing still to do
Terra the Mexican red knee, these are usually the one's we're more familar with.
