At least 7...that's something. My female dropped a dud sac not long ago and eventually ate it - she went straight to premolt right after. Good luck with those little guys!

Yes it is. I tried a communal with them once (3 siblings). Unfortunately one got ate, and I split the others up. I don't really do communals myself. But if you want a new world tarantula that's communal, these are the best to go with.
Thanks for the info. If I were to do a communal I'd want to get a handful of slings cheapish (like $5-$10 a sling) and set them up execting some losses. But if these are not common anymore in the hobby I'm guessing that getting 50 bucks worth (5-10 slings) wouldn't be possible.

Psalmopoeus irminia sac!

Unfortunately no pics. My female has a web fortress that is impenetrable. She might of actually laid the sac a week or two ago.

Sure is bro! Waiting on the other female to drop or molt again.
Our old "large"?


---------- Post added 06-16-2013 at 10:20 PM ----------

That was her last molt. I wasnt about to go digging through her fortress to retreave it. Last time i saw her she looked very gravid. Then i seen the molt outside of her hide, and thought oh crap she molted lol. Then i remembered i never took the molt out.
In the OBT sac pic, is that the remnants of a male, or a messed up moult?

Brachypelma vagans sac!

Hoping this time will be better than last. I replaced her water dish with a deli cup to keep humidity up, and keep her from getting her sac wet this time. Big fat sac too!
