My very first T. She broke my fear of spiders :) She is extremely docile too.

Thank you! I haven't uploaded any media just yet, but I will be sure to do so soon! The person I bought the sling from says it is somewhere around a couple months old. They didn't give me an exact date tho, so i'm not too sure..

Thank you all! My baby chaco dug itself a burrow :)

Just a quicker way of saying tarantula. :) and thank you, me too

Yes pinkies. One one week and another a week later. (didn't want to kill it myself and my other T didn't want it. ) It didn't look like she had any trouble subduing them. @spiderengineer- Yeah I wasn't sure on buying the pinkies, the guy at my exotic pet store told me I should as they get...

First one is my Chaco Sling. Second is Fluffy- (girlfriend named her :) Third is my princess arachness... (lame I know lol) She is the first in my collection

Well she was eating mice for a few weeks. but she has stopped eating as of a week and a half ago. Wont accept crickets either. I do have her in a humid bathroom running steamy water for a min or so every so often. She has seemed to stop freaking at the slightest vibration apparently. I walk into...

Well... Lets hope she doesn't nail me when I take her out to clean her enclosure in the future :) Thanks everyone for the help.

@spazz - That does make a lot of sense. I appreciate your input. That at least gives me a broader perspective on the species and a peace of mind with her behavior. Although she has let me handle her many times before without any attempt to bite me or flick hair she has always been very nervous...

Ok so probably best I don't handle her. She is very aggressive right now. She has some massive fangs for her size too. I have setup a better molt environment for her if that is the case. She does have a bald spot on the top of her abdomen, but it is not dark at all.

I haven't really handled her since she started. That video is less intense as well. She goes crazier than that. I really have no idea when she has last molted. I have only had her for a few months. Still young I believe. 2/3 the size of my Mature G.Rosea.

Here is a video of what she does. Hope this helps.

Thank you all for the welcomes :)
