I'm really not particular to any one over the other. I like arboreal species, but certainly am not apposed to terrestrial. Heavy webbing is always cool and so are huge Ts but again I could have a tiny T that won't web and be happy.

Mike #2 is an OBT, I'll give you $5 to hold one :p

Yea ill pass on that. Its pretty to look at though! :)

Darn an I was hoping for some cool bite pics.
In all seriousness though the OBT kind of intimidates me. But I want to keep old world species and I have to start somewhere.

Out of curiosity, what do you have already? The P. irminia would probably be a good "training" T for future old worlds. Fast, defensive, good size, but you get the bonus of weak venom, and the super bonus of no urticating hairs. So its basically OW without the venom.

Just get all 4

If I felt comfortable shipping, I can get OBTs pretty cheap.
P. irminia is one of my favorites for sure, she is very fast!

My LPs are growing so quick so that adds another cool factor to them.

I wasn't into OBTs until my T guy had one and I looked them up. The webbing is amazing. That older one I have is set up in a taller arboreal type of cage. She has made a canopy of tunnels. Out of the 7 one has took underground.

Let us know what you go with!

I may end up doing it if can. But since its Christmas time and I gotta think about my kid and a few others too. I can pick up OBTs for a good price at my lps and I may just get one after Christmas if I have the money.

Versicolooooor! Also oh god Orange Ball of Terror XD I can still recognize those on sight and I've gotten awful rusty at IDing Ts (I only ever had a rosie that I had to rehome due to an aggressively arachnophobic roomie, sadly). I've never actually seen an Irminia before, I really love those markings.

I still say get the P. irminia and P. murinus. Just be ready, the obt's speed is mind-boggling, and it's only gonna get faster :rolleye2: lol. Good luck with whatever you decide on.
