Like I've seen some petshops sell dead bugs for sale. It was like in a can if I remember correctly... Pretty interesting but I have never used those before so I cannot vouch for it.

I wonder if you can buy dead bugs to squeeze the insides out if you don't want to kill anything? Or can a friend help?

This is very interesting and I would like to know the outcome. We may never know but I wonder if the spider can regenerate the nerves that were targeted by the venom.

Just to update you Laurens on the feeding, mine took pinhead crickets and they haven't molted yet. I will try to get small fruit flies and feed them and will get back to you on that.

To give you guys an update, I finally found the time to start housing these guys individually. Took me hours to just get about half of them housed... I have roughly 250 so far until I ran out of little cups. I think I will have at least 400 by the time I'm done. I don't have time for this.. haha.

Hey those look awesome! Thanks for sharing that with me. Good luck with your babies! I'm going to have to face a pissed off mom and fast babies. I did not separate the sac from her.

Thanks! :) ---------- Post added 05-06-2015 at 01:19 AM ---------- Yes I plan on selling them once I separate them all out and they start eating. I will let you guys know when I plan on doing that. But I don't know if I want to ship just yet as I don't really have the resources. Maybe for...

I'm not sure when.. This is my first time keeping this kind so I'm pretty new. I think once I get them all housed, I will wait for about a week then give them fruit flies. They seemed to have molted once in the sac. What was your experience? ---------- Post added 05-05-2015 at 11:47 AM...

I checked my female davibowie with an egg sac last night a little past 12am to see 2-3 babies crawling out. Snapped a couple shots before it became a mess with a ton of babies. They are very small, but I think they would be able to take fruit flies very well... I checked it again this morning...

Hmm okay thanks for the input! It was greatly appreciated. :)

Haha thanks... I honestly don't know what to do with the sac. I'm not sure if I'd be down to raise however many babies. I already made the necessary approach to prevent them from escaping once they hatch but then comes the issue of housing each individual one... And I think it is the...

This one is just 3" in length and super fast. It uses it's front two legs to basically hunt. I got two Thelcticopis modesta, one orange and one that is beige in color and has dropped a sac.

I recently acquired this really cool spider from a shipment from Malaysia. I was wondering if anyone knows what this is? My guess is some type of Pandercetes or lichen spider.

This was taken in the wild and was not staged incase anyone was wondering.

They were paired 6/20/14 so almost 6 months. Im not sure how long they take either. I found only one article someone wrote in the UK that seemed most helpful... but it's a shame that the eggs wont survive. It was a huge sac compared to the ones ive seen online but maybe the pics were out of...

Mine are WC too. But only got really fat and started to eat a lot once I paired them up for about a week. Oh I see. Why do you say that the eggs won't hatch? I'm assuming the sac keeps in a bit of humidity? Haha wow that mush have been fun :)

Thanks! I put a small piece of wood in the center that i was hoping she would use. So then do you think she dosent need to be paired up again for another sac? How long do they retain the sperm? Also if the egg fell apart then that could mean that there are eggs scattered around the sand? How...

Sorry for the flipped pic... :P

Okay, before you guys murder me for keeping a Sicarius in a shoe container, I have that thing in a 10gal tank with a screen lid making it safe. Also, none has ever escaped even out of the shoe container since the sand isn't deep enough. I just didn't want to put them in a 10 gal, but didn't want...

Found my heros in my shoe when I lost it so check there too. I'd imagine that they would particularly like the kitchen or the bathroom because of the moisture...
