Eugh. I hope they don't eat moscas!
I am assuming the second is a Goliath but what is the first?
Edit: BTW they are great, wish I still had one 🙁
Catchy names.
if they came near me I would kill them - if I had a 9ft long club - and i mean the baby ones.

No just crickets and meal worms Si 😀
Shakey, the first is also know as a Green Bottle Blue and the second in a Chaco Golden Knee. The chaco will be big though, up to 22cm ish if female.
Bought here is you fancy getting one again

cyaneopubescens
ha ha... does that translate as cyan pubes? 😆
Ah phew. In the rainforests I saw a tarantula, and it was the size of a dinner plate tip of leg to tip of leg. Never realised they could get that huge!
it was the size of a dinner plate
Look on the bright side Si, at least when they get that big they can't run very fast. They just have to lurk in your sleeping bag instead. 🙂
