pics are of my Linothele fallax sus male









as of late dec maybs early Jan, he completely regenerated his broken spinneret, it took him a few molts though whihc honestly amazed me, i've seem tarantulas regenrate entire lost limbs almost fully in just one molt and it took him like 4 to regenerate the end of a damn spinneret lol

more Linothele fallax pics

most of these pics are of him about a week post molt, i have no idea in the instar since i got him when he (i believe its a he) was about 1.5", idk his for sure length sinc eyou can't really get these things to sit still so you can measure them but i assume he's 3"...maybe slightly over that. These guys grow so effing fast oh mhy gud

..actually i think those first four were a few days before his molt lol

these guys will eat the day of their molt, this guy, when he was smaller, once ate like an hour before he molted lol


decided to transfer him to a larger enclosure, he had escape plans on his mind instead


what a beast

These are seriously underrated spiders. They are just so beautiful. Thanks for the photos.

I've been getting more and more interested in true spiders and these are at the top of the list...and that list is long. Need to look for a better paying job. They kinda remind me of Heterothele.

These aren't actually true spiders, these are mygalomorphs like tarantulas but in a different family, Dipluridae.
