IMPORTANT: Although lists like this are fun, they are FAR from scientific. The spiders included in this video have been chosen by other hobbyists and myself as fast growers, but there are obviously MANY species that are not on the list that likely grow AS quickly if not MORE quickly. Obviously, growth rates may vary from spider to spider and from keeper to keeper, so if you have had faster or slower growth rates, feel free to share. There are also likely many obscure species that don't make the cut only because there aren't a lot of people keeping them. Folks tend to get defensive when a spider they adore doesn't make lists like this one, and I get it. But if there is a spider that you feel should have made the list and didn't, PLEASE chime in with the species and the growth rate you experienced with it. The video itself is only part of this becoming an educational resource; the other part is viewer comments. Thanks in advance!
