Yup. Under-rated T IMO. Very cool species.

Psalmopoeus's ROCK! I have irminia, cambridgei, and pulcher, all raised from slings.

Beautiful Ts, post some pics of yours.

Later I'll get some shots. Right now all I have are ventrals that I have to look at and post up.

I am new to this sp. Being in my collection
And I also agree, they look hot.
Most of mine are slings but some at are about 1.5" and beginning to show awesome colors :)
Wondering when my irminia's leg tips (basitarsus?) will no longer be orangey.. They look great though,
As slings and as adults..

They will grow fast Bianca! Got a bunch of cambridgei last summer (2008) as 1st, yes first, instar. They are now around 3 inches in diagonal leg span.

Nice! Makes me look forward to watching mine grow. I just got 2 P. cambridgei yesterday with a few avics. This is combined with the 5 irminia already. The psalmos family is really growing on me. :drool:

I'm ashamed to say I used to think cambridgei were kind of ugly when I started looking around these boards but some are the most brilliant green I've ever seen! (except for a psalmo I had a dream about..) These look great frm slings to adults.

Well this is my only P. cambridgei that cooperated with a photo shoot. Ladies and gents, meet Digger, my largest of my slings. He's about 1.5" I'd say.

Surprisingly he didn't bolt out of the jar when I opened it up!

Here's a ventral shot..IDK if it's just me, but you can kinda see the blue under the tarsi. It's basically just starting to show.

I cant see any blue in the picture, but I know what you mean.

Lucky you. One of my P. cambridgei slings escaped the night before and sqeezed through a crack in my desk. I'm leaving a few tree root hides I made misted with some water by the crack and doing random flashlight searches.

Good luck!

OP- I just ordered my first P. irminia the other day. I am looking forward to adding more from this genus to my collection!

Somebody needs to try to get a pic of the blue. I honestly make a lot of my decisions on what I want to get based on the pictures that people post. I wasn't all that interested in an OBT until I saw a pic on these forums of one posturing and showing the blue.

Psalmos are awesome! I agree the cambridgei are very underrated. So far mine have been very hardy and fun to watch.
