New ladies! Two are gravid and have to be mated, the one on the left I am not sure about but she will get bred after the other two. :) Can anyone say elegans give away? :)

Awesome spiders. The dwarf species have always been my favorite.

Good luck with the sacs! If you do a giveaway, put me down :D I've wanted elegans for a long long time.

1 lady down 2 to go!

The big gal in the middle is locked up with the male now! She should lay really soon. 1 down 2 to go! That is if the male and female ever unlock!

Not hard to keep from what I have been experiencing so far. Slightly moist substrate, with a light misting from time to time.

My first lady came to me and 16 days later dropped a sac. She was 1/2 as fat as this lady so I expect a sac soon!

They finally broke up after 4 hours 12 minutes!!! :eek:

Great species...I have 4 unsexed, but some are pretty big, so I wonder how big are those females? Body size and legspawn? Any special care before or after mating?
