Just one question. How the hell did you get them to stop? lmao If I were to try that, mine would be halfway across the room and still moving at Mach5.

Told you those two weren't complete demons, Chris. That lugardi was a sweetheart when I was packing her up. The murinus did hiss at me once but really wasn't extremely defensive beyond that.

It's still not recommended to handle either species folks as they are generally considered (rather) defensive, particularly P. murinus. Once out of their enclosure or familiar territory, they can be somewhat calm.
