New Tarantula: Brachypelma hamorii

I got a new tarantula last night, off of Craig's List. Brachypelma hamorii. Beautiful 4" female. I was nervous about getting a spider from someone off of Craig's List, but she looks healthy, and transaction went smoothly.

She's looking good this morning. Even after the stressful, nearly two hour, car ride she still took a cricket this morning.

She's in an aquarium with reptibark, so I do need to re-house her as soon as possible. But, otherwise, shes great.
