I bought an adult female chile rose about 25 years ago. 3 days later I bought an adult female P.murinus, C.darlingi and (as it was back then) H. lividus, along with about 50 mixed spiderlings.
I give my excess roaches to a small pet shop. It means the girl who owns it can feed her animals for free now and again, hopefully increasing her profits.
Breed Turkistan (Red runner) roaches. They cost nothing to feed (food scraps) are tiny when they hatch so even L. parahybana spiderlings will take them, they are fast breeders and can't climb glass or plastic. You'll never need to buy food again.
I first bought a Chile Rose then the next day bought a P. murinus.
Never had a problem or an issue.
I don't understand why people panic or are wary about old world species.
Roughly how long after her final moult did it take for a Hottentotta Hottentotta to drop babies.
She mould about 4 or 5 months ago. I'm 80%sure it's her final moult as I was told she was 2i when I got her.
Her body is about 1.5" I think.
Cheers.
