My juvie B_Vagans is growing pretty fast. I think it might be a male but despite that I was wondering how big they get since Lam has mentioned that they don't get that big. Would you say they get as big/bigger/smaller than a bloodleg(B_Boehmi)?


p.s.
You're welcome to use this thread if you have questions on other T sizes=D

I was wondering the same.. My brothers B.Boehmi's growth has near enough matched that of my Poecilotheria Regalis. The Poke' appears to be male and the Vagans female so I was a bit curious....

They were both from spiderlings too (In september); the poke has moulted a total of three times more but both are now relatively the same legspan, around 4 inches

IME, vagans don't get quite as large as boehmei, which seem to be one of the largest of the Brachys. I've had boehmei males that were easily 6" legspan, but my vagans, male and female, have all topped out around 5" (still a good sized spider).

Vagans usually are 4.5"-5" when matured, still an impressive spider.
