Avics are very touchy tarantulas to deal with. My Avicularia diversipes that I just got for my birthday on the 24th of September passed away like a week or two after I got it. The other 3 avics I got at that time are still going strong though. My Avicularia metallica I had passed away for unkown reasons also (just got a new female though thanks to a friend since I like them so much). The avics are just not very hardy species sadly![]()
