Good deal johnny! I guess the need for them mature female bicoloratum and pulchra have a magical draw. And that M. robustums, careful, you might cause me to add another to my must have female list.

How are you setting up the M. robustom enclosures? Mine is arriving next week, and I haven't totally decided yet. I have read they love to hide, and that they prefer a burrow over a hide... but I would like to see it occasionally too!

well right now I have them in about six inches of peat. and I still have to get them all hides . from what I understand you see these guys quite a bit even though they are burrowers. I love these guys they are great spiders with the coolest threat posture I've ever seen... they stand on the tips of their feet and do what looks like a handstand. I havent seen them spin around but just the pose is pretty cool .

Wow - those Megaphobemas are awsome! Pity that M. robustum is so expensive and there are only few in Poland. Great pics!

Oh yeah, just what I needed to see, the M. Robustum! :} So stunning! Still on top of my "HAVE TO HAVE SOONER OR LATER" list. :)

Terrific pictures, Johnny!

Those are some very nice additions. I keep my M. robustum on about six inches of a mixture of ground coco(50%), jungle mix(25%) and sand(25%). For a hide, I just stick a piece of cork in the substrate at an angle and they dig their own hide from there.
