So let me get this straight; Eddy and I are the only individuals to have actually produced real baumgarteni in the hobby in who knows how long, we’ve mapped several populations in the wild, have studied their ecology with the UNAM in Mexico, etc. You saw my females and the male cannot come from...
LOL! I have no problems with the questions (they were expected). Just your tone... and you base all your arguments on pictures. At the end of the day, you don't have to buy any of them Mr. Baumgarteni. There are other interested buyers.
Cheers!
Clearly, there is a great deal you don’t know when it comes to baumgarteni and one of them is how long they can take to mature (I already mentioned that there are still some immature males from Eddy’s 2004 breeding). So quite frankly, I couldn’t care less if you have issues with the Pope or if...
That's exactly it. I don't power feed my spiders and I severely stunted the male until I knew that the females would be ready. But I also know others who still have immature males from Eddy's 2004 breeding. :)
Greetings! I am the one who just successfully bred true baumgarteni – two egg sacs. The first one produced 729 slings. The second one will be counted shortly. Thanks Eddy for your 2004 stock!
Foremost, I'd like to quickly mention that I’ve been in contact with baumgarteni and other Mexican...
Excellent shots again Martin... the pics keep getting better as Pato pointed out! Nice work.
Perhaps you can teach me some lighting techniques (external flash, diffused light) as I would like to get better lighting with my shots.

Thanks Martin... I wasn't really able to get a good shot of them because I was shooting only at f/2.8 (so very shallow DOF!) - I just realized this recently, argh! So hopefully the next shots come out better @ smaller apertures.
My favorite is the big fly - too bad it was taken at f/2.8...
Thanks Koh! You'd love to visit... there's lots to see. The insect diversity continues to amaze me on each field trip. And to think that they were always there, right before my very eyes!
