Matt_95 Posted March 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 It is quite difficult to ID tarantulas, often the only way to get a positive ID is to send the shed skin away to an expert for an ID. I would really rather buy one with a definite ID. What is their legspan and are they sexed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jha Posted March 9, 2012 Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 philogius sp.crassipes leg span 8cm, sex? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_95 Posted March 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 Thanks for finding out for me, it's a nightmare trying to ID tarantulas, you can never go off colour. Sometimes it comes down to the angle the hairs leave the body. I might pass on these. I'm a bit broke and the Phlogius sp. grow around 100mm per year so I may just get a sling. If they are make they will have swollen pedipalps but these may be to small to sex just yet. Males live around 5 years while females live 20-30.

Matt_95 Posted March 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 My new slings arrived today, absolutely devastated because my rubiesta scaled tyenglass walls and escaped IN MY ROOM!!!! I feel so irresponsible, I didn't even know they could climb glass, now of my Seleontypus slings can.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
