Hi!

3rd time opened thread because of this I think (?)...

This is a Heteropoda maxima, biggest (only legspan, 30 cm) spider in the world.

Was available for a while here in Germany, but its not good to pick them up from their habit, because they are very rare there, too...

available here: www.insektenkoenig.de

See under stocklist.
