I& #39;ll start this off with my smallest adult tarantula. This female Catumiri argentinense is full grown at her 1.25" leg span & she& #39;s one of my favorites. Very calm, great eater, one of the few I& #39;m eager to handle. She has a pretty bronze sheen in the right light.
An old world next! This is a juvenile female Harpactira pulchripes, an old world tarantula native to areas of South Africa. They reach ~4-5 inches as adults. Great webbers, but will burrow if they have the space.
