[QUOTE="Isilwen, post: 198675, member: 31951"] Saturday, at a local reptile show, I picked up a larger versicolor! I'm gonna say she (probable female according to the vendor) is about two inches or so. She also came with a nano-tall enclosure that I need to populate with "clutter" type things. There is already a small cork round glued to the background, so I will work around that. Hoping to have better luck with a larger versicolor over a smaller sling where I have lost two already. I was given a free tarantula for spending a certain amount of money with that vendor. It's a hysterocrates gigas and I know nothing about them other than they are an old world tarantula. I swore I would never get an old world, but it was free, and I didn't want to turn it down. It is maybe a 1/4 sling. Please tell me about them! Here are photos of what the enclosure for the versicolor looks like currently. You can see the versicolor in the photos. I am going to change the substrate out to reptisoil.
