[QUOTE="Nicolas C, post: 91428, member: 3795"] I don't know why your Brachypelma albopilosum acts like this. It's possible that he runs in his hide when he senses a movement in the room (i.e. when you enter), and then comes out when he doesn't feel any danger anymore. Or maybe is he just curious? What is sure is that Brachypelma have poor eyesight: they can distinguish day from night, and senses some movements because of the shadows, but nothing more with their eyes. But they can feel a lot with their hairs which are almost like eyes: movements, pressure, vibrations, etc. They feel all of this very well. About size and upgrading, I cannot answer you as I don't use these measures (in Switzerland!). If you can give me the size of your slings (diagonal leg span) and the diameter of the cup, maybe I could help... The lighter spots under the abdomen are the (book) lungs. He should have four actually... [/QUOTE]
