    Just get 3 babies. Better odds you'll get a female

    Offer someone 300 @100 each.

    You'll get to spend more time with them, have a better understanding of them while they are little. Not buying an adult that someone "labeled" as a female to jack up the price. Doesn't have the adult speed. Doesn't have an adult attitude.

    You can later trade off any males, sell any females if you get more than one. Make your money back and have a free P. metallica.

    I have a GBB and a P. Metallica. The GBB pretty much just chills in its web, but the P. Metallica is FAST! I will be transferring it to its new enclosure soon, now I'm nervous lol. 3skulls isn't joking about the speed, at all.

    Please let us know how it goes and how you do it.

    When I was digging out my P. irminia, she grabbed the chopstick and was pulling it in! I'll have to move her over one more time. Now she is big :o

    Ohhhh so when 3skulls says it THEN its a good idea. I see how it is...

    I'm a bad listener bc i can't hear very well to begin with. And when i can hear, its all selective.

    I got a P. metallica as my 3rd T, so I kinna just jumped right in. He's QUICK and I'll probably never even think of handling him, but I love him. I got him as a tiny sling from Ken the Bug Guy this past October and he's gotten muuuuch bigger and prettier since. If you're smart and careful about transfers it's not that bad. I actually DID pay $300 for 3, just two were my friend's, so I'd say contact Ken and he may be willing to do the same for you. It might've just been a show deal though, not sure.
