PHILIPPINE DWARF TARANTULA (Phlogiellus baeri)
There's the Phlogiellus baeri, which is our very own Philippine Dwarf Tarantula. They can be pet holes, but some of them have been known to be rather outgoing critters. I'm taking care of one right now, and she hardly peeks out of her burrow, but when she does, what you see is a lovely, chocolate-brown, smooth-bodied tarantula that, as an adult, has a legspan of around 2". Yep, that's it. 2 inches.
They're not particularly aggressive, but they're known to be nervous and will often keep to themselves (inside their burrow!).
I keep mine in a much larger container than what's specified in this care sheet, however. I like to think I'm giving it all the space it might possibly need. ^_^
