    Theraphosa blondi egg sac!!

    Again depends on food - I've never ever had a problem with this. I think 2-3 instar is fine, whenever they want to start digging and having space of their own. You feed them well and they are all happy together for a long time, same with most Ts. So unfortunately bad news they are infertile.

    Theraphosa blondi egg sac!!

    To my surprise my female T.blondi(yes the real one!) laid an egg sac in the last few weeks.. I have a jungle like tank with a deep burrow so hardly see her. I mated her a few months ago but didn’t think much of it as male wasn’t that fresh but kept him very cold until female was mature...
