Mexican Fireleg (Brachypelma boehmei) Pooping on me

I was trying to show one of my spiders off for youtube and he pooped on me right as I turned the camera on, and then ran straight at my face towards the camera. Sorta funny.

beautiful Tarantula, i like your Peavey too. :D how long did it take yours to grow to that size? (if you got it as a sling)

[Begybege]

@4everRock666 Probably 2 1/2 3 years right there. Still has not yet matured at 5 years. Thansk about the Peavey

[johnbc62]

how can you tell if a t is going to become that calm?.

what size do they grow too?.

do you have tips on how to handle the new ones that have never been touched?.

[Begybege]

@johnbc62 I have had spiders for a while now and I do not normally handle them. There are sooo many factors taken into account before I will hold one. This is one in which I will pick up rarely as I itch like a mo fo afterwards She is actually very calm here. This species normally wont bite but they flick hairs and are a spaz.
