The “OBT” is a fierce Old-world known for it's comically bad attitude. Adults will often hold their ground and attempt to scare off intruders with its threat display of rearing up on its back legs, smacking the ground and stridulation "hissing." Spiderlings are typically skittish.
Recommended enclosure: A 7x7x11” Terrestrial Enclosure Kit or 8x8x14" Terrestrial Enclosure Kit.
Currently feeding on:Large B. lateralis.

She came securely wrapped and just a shy little thing. Can tell shes had a proper enclosure her entire life. Beautiful vibrant orange
Jamie always provides the best animals. The she shipped in time and arrived healthy and help and she is adjusting to her new enclosure. I would highly recommend Jamie’s on the web to anyone getting into or already in the hobby.
My order from Jamie's was a mixed experience. My package was delayed in transit for 4 days total, and I suffered one DOA out of four spiders. I'm still giving 5 stars because Jamie offered a choice of refund or replacement, even going so far as to give me an extra store credit.
However, be aware that communication with the seller can be slow. It often took a couple of days to get a reply back. One critique I would give is to contact customers before shipping, just to open a line of communication first. Otherwise I had no idea when my order was going to ship.
I'm adding Jamie's to my list of tarantula sellers though because they are legit and you do get what you order. I order 4 females and that's exactly what I received, and the ones who survived the transit delay were healthy.
