    Talking New Pickup! Thrixopelma ockerti female

    Heehee, I'm so excited to have finally gotten her She just recently molted (hence the exuvium in the container) and she's just about 2" leg to leg. I've named her Frigga, and she LOVES to kick hairs, let me tell you that

    Lol yeah. She kicked a nice sized cloud for such a small girl the second Amanda (Tarantula Canada) picked up the cup to show me I've found that most hairs don't bug me too much, so hopefully her's won't either we shall see tonight when she gets her real enclosure. Something tells me she's going to give herself a bald spot on her freshly molted heiny very soon

    I never had problems with T hairs until after long term repeated exposure to them Now I welt up and itch like crazy for like two weeks Hopefully you are one of the people that the hairs never really bother
