This one kept the P. liosoma company on the plane ride. I shot the pictures through plastic as its habitat is a "kritter keeper" step-up on end. It was a definite challenge getting it from the vial as well. It was designated 3 inches on purchase.

Yes indeed, she tried but thanks to whomever made 9 inch forceps. She was in a defensive posture inside that small vial protecting the damp tissue undernealth her as I was trying to get her to come out.

Nice vivid orange there. Very Happy

Mine is smaller and still pretty dull on the coloration.

Beautiful OBT. I'm hoping I could get one eventually. I never get tired of seeing pictures online, it has a peculiar coloration that just leaves me breathless.

The photo does not do her justice and I am looking forward to the next molt. Thanks for the comments as it is appreciated cheers

Is that the red colour form? The RCF's do look kinda day-glow compared to the normal colour form.

But either way the colours of OBT's are breathtakingly stunning, like a phoenix of the tarantula world Very Happy

Not that I'm aware of and depending upon the lighting, there is highlights of red. Just have to keep my fingers crossed

Whatever colorform it may be, yours makes mine look like mud. Very Happy
