Does any still keep Trapdoor Spiders

[Venom100]

They're the least expensive I've seen, also the biggest.

Just putting it out there lol any one have that species available im highly interested.

Now what I'm really looking for now, other than other Liphistius Sp., is Cyclocosmia ricketti and a silver species of trapdoor from Africa. Other interesting looking species will interest me too.

That video footage is so very cool.

 

[basin79]

Terrible quality due to them being screen shots from the video I recorded yesterday. But you can still make out my Liphistius cf ornatus.

I'm going to lower the quality on my proper camera and set it to continuous shoot mode on the next feeding and see if I manage to get any half decent pics.

Can't wait to see! I had a vid of my ornatus, lost it when I got my new phone.

I've got loads of vids of mine. Just want a good pic.

 

[Terrena Laxamentum]

It'd be cool to see them in action while in slow motion, too.

There's a video a few posts up of mine I posted yesterday.

 

[Terrena Laxamentum]

Oh dang, didn't realize that there was a slow motion portion. That's cool.

 

[basin79]

Oh dang, didn't realize that there was a slow motion portion. That's cool.

Aye. Then when you see the normal speed it looks like it's massively speeded up footage.

 

[Terrena Laxamentum]

I wish there were more species available. Even though you rarely see them, it's worth it when you do.

I know a few people with Cyclocosmia sp. I’m also looking for silver trapdoor species.

 

[Venom100]

So jealous!

Yeah, but they're probably truncata or torreya.

Came as a tiny sling living in a sling pot. Was in that for quite a while eating hatchling crickets. After the last recent moult he/she has coloured up. Although the sun sorts of washes the colours out on that last video. The previous vid you can see the colours better.

 

[basin79]

I almost did it. Nearly got a good pic of my Liphistius cf ornatus hurtling out of her trapdoor.
