Please post your pics here, sizes which lasiodora and male or female. Let's have fun with this, will start posting mine in a day or so when I'm home again. Seeing they are in contention as the largest tarantula species, largest documented as being 11.5 inches. As where the theraposa blondi was at 12 inches, largest l.klugi 25 cm or 10 inches. Maybe we could see a contender emerge right here, yet again lets have fun.

Really want a Klugi and a Striatus. Just have a chunky Parahybana at the moment. (This pick was just after it's last moult, so it looks more leggy than it is). Could almost pass for a Klugi with that freshly moulted abdomen. ;)

Very nice picture, I am a huge Lasiodora species fan. Really underrated due to availability, will update my almost 9 inch females pic she molted recently and a klugi as well.
