Ooh how exciting, they're all so beautiful~ it's funny to wonder about what other kind of critters are out there and we don't know of. ^^

Very nice, made me think of one of the two tarantula's that I started with which was an Avicularia versicolor, at least what if looked like as a juvenile after the young blue color stage. Avicularias are so cool to raise from a hatchling because of the color changes that they go through as it matures.

The video on that page irritates me. They're talking about the "goliath bird-eating spider" (theraphosa blondi), yet the last tarantula in the video looks to be a brachypelma smithi. They're two completely different tarantulas in two completely different areas. T. blondi is from South America, b. smithi is from North America. I wanted to reply to that video so bad, but my husband told me to let it go. I still think it's goofy.
