Ok so this is my biggest Lasiodora parahybana. Sold to me as a suspect male. Along with a smaller sac mate suspect female. (So you ventral sexing pros are,welcome right now as I'm not comfortable enough to say anything for certain) He's about 5". In a reptile bin KK type enclosure. Wider than taller....
See those ventilation slits on the side? Like the raptors in Jurassic Park. He's wandering his cage testing the fences. Sticking a fang out if he can. Wandering a lot on the side. But a lot of toothy exploration outside of the enclosure. Unsettling as I just get home from a night of bar security to see your most "amusing" tarantula reminding you that It's a wild animal with fangs that are already a half inch easily, and it doesn't care that it's my favorite. It thinks it's better outside. Dammit tarantula don't you realize I know what's best for you? Stay in there!
Anyways. My immediate thought is new enclosure time asap. Is that overreacting? I've heard stories these guys are escape artists and chewers. Can they snap through an enclosure like this?
I can't take my eyes off of him. It's so new to anything I've seen him do.
