Meet Robin! She's the newest spider to join my hoarde! She's a Brazilian Black Tarantula, Grammostola pulchra!

She climbed out while I was refilling her water and it took like ten minutes to convince her to get off my hand and go back into her enclosure
(I don’t blame her, it is such a big step down and she has no way of knowing that there’s ground there, she doesn’t want to fall)

I was moving things around a bit in her enclosure and she was actually super chill about it

She charges only one roach per session! 👍
(well, there’s actually 24 of them right now but not all have the therapist licence...)

pictures of my g pulchra while its in this little container as i'm cleaning its terrarium lol.
i dont pick this juvenile (1 1/2 year old) up often so when i picked it up to transfer it, it was a nice feeling- super soft! also a little bit warm since the terrarium is near a light.
it got away once but luckily i was in the bathroom away from the cats haha.
fun fact, its name is Jekyll
:-)

My beautiful G. pulchra out for a stroll. This girl hasn't molted in two freaking years now. She hasn't even eaten in at least a year. Her abdomen is huge though, so that's fine. Wish she would just molt already, I knew the grammostola genus are slow growers but damn 😮‍💨

People underestimate them. 
My Grammostola pulchra is, if you choose to look at it that way, absolutely terrifying to most of us. Usually when you think about spiders, you think of something small that'll run away the very second it spots you - NOT the case here. The second she spots you - or rather, feels you - she, depending on the mood, starts coming slowly... or comes out of her hiding spot, running at you. Going like a tank. And the looks sure as hell can fool - she's fast despite being so massive and heavy. Fast enough to catch a speeding cockroach. She'll not stop until she finds out what it is that disturbed her - if it's tweezers or a roach, she often strikes a defensive pose. If it's my hand - she calms down and sits there, letting me touch her all I want. I can touch the carapace, the butt, the legs, the fangs, you name it. I can pick her up and hold her. Keep in mind nothing would stop this animal from biting me or at least flicking urticating hairs at me. Or at the very least moving away like she sometimes does from a roach or tweezers.
Many people call them brainless creatures functioning purely on instinct - at times, to a reasonable degree, I beg to differ. Amazing creature. I love her 🖤
