I thought I'd take some pictures of my Haplopema sp. tonight, mostly to see if she has a "beard" like the spider in this thread. She has a bit of a fringe, but nothing like the "beards" on the spiders in this thread. And her abdomen seems to have more distinct markings than the Haplopelma in the first thread. I don't know, it does look very similar though. Anyway, I took the lid off her cage and holy shit did she ever freak out! She darted over to one corner, then back the way she came, paused, and darted across the cage again. Yikes, she's a lively one! Eventually she calmed down and I took a few pics. It's funny how she's so dead to the world during the day, but a total spaz at night. I've noticed both her hind legs are a bit gimped though. The last segment seems to bend back the wrong way a lot of the time. Not sure if this is a genetic deformity or maybe she'll molt and come out "normal". Anyway, interesting spider, glad I have her, even if she is a gimp.

Mmm, looking at this page, I would guess it's a Haplopelma sp. "Vietnam" due to its wimpy rear legs and darker colour.
