LOL - It was based on size. She was not too happy being shipped and then rehoused but that was to be expected. She was not to bad though in all honesty. I am not quite sure how her temperment is in general yet but I would imagine she is more likely to kick hairs then to bite unless left with no other choice (but I can't confirm that). U hairs make me itch a lot and welt me up and with the Theraphosa's being the worse it makes me not want to bother her too much at all![]()
