Mate that wee beast is stunning!

Spiders are usually fluffy after a shed (dont quote me on that but my three were)

Yes mate, 2 chilli's and a goliath

Bllimey, that was a good guess. I used to have a Chilli and a Goliath along with Thai Blacks (great vicious little buggers), Pink Toes, some frightening arboreal thing I can't remember the name of, and a Camel Spider. The Goliath was something special.

Tell me bout it, when my first chilli died (inherited her from my uncle when she was 15 and i had her for at least 5 yrs after) went down to my local reptile shop, had a look and the thing jumped out the tank! took me and the owner 10 Min's to get him back in lol. settled for my Goliath (RIP) lost her to a cold winter, where my power had gone out and she decided to shed. just got the one chilli now.

I had a emperor scorpion as-well but he committed suicide!
(don't have much luck with pets do i)

Nice... I got a mexican red knee and recently parted with a chilean rose :)

Red-Knees were like gold dust when I was keeping them, and had a price tag to match.

The arboreal thing I had was awesome scary, it was like our native house spider, just as fast, a jumper, but 10 times as big. It really used to freak me out more than the Camel spider. Cleaning out time was fun, I used to run a mile if it got out and it took me an hour or so to pluck up the courage for a recapture.

It was something like this but with a smaller abdomen...
