C.Crawshayi in threat pose , he held this for about 30 minutes and eventually toppled over - Bless him !
Now that's a KING Baboon! :clap: I know most threat pics I've seen of them as female famous with the drumstick legs, nice to know the King backsup his side as well. :D How long was he in your care?

i always laugh at the threat poses that are so "intense" that the spider falls over.

my h. maculata did it once.. no camera at the time though. i was actually trying to flood her out of a jar and into her new enclosure... she floated on her back in the jar, threatening me.. :eek:

I've only had him for about 3 weeks now, great T [IMO] .
has about 3 burrows and stomps around every 12 hours or so, bossing all he sees.
:D

HAHA.. I can see that happen with a lividum :D . One of mine got pissed at the roach I tossed in there, and did the threat dance until the roach had done it's third round arround the tank wall. Up until then she was standing on her 4 back legs, the rest in the air, and occasionally leaning forward, to clearly show what reach she has. Cute =)

My first T, female G. rosea. Often fell over on her back and would stay that way for a few minutes. She also would charge anything that came in her tank.

glad this wasn't me.


G. rosea sling in mini threat.


P. scrofa, also a very nasty girl.

This is not the most agressive display, but for a B. smithi it´s agressive enough. She´s been doing that often since last molt. Cool!!!
