OBT was my 3rd spider. I got it 3 months into keeping. She’s a mature female now. H Mac and S cal are way more high strung. Cobalts are burrowed most of the time and won’t bother you if you set them up right.
I know not everyone is me or ready to take that leap. But with no context for what Op...
...out of the womb new T owner, I’ve owned an avicularia avicularia (common pink toe) for around 5 years now. I just recently got a Cyriopagopus lividus (cobalt blue) and a Tliltocatl vagans (Mexican redrump). My redrump was rehoused as soon as I got her, she was in a tiny enclosure that she...
...how long it was in there but , its been about 2 months now. Im not going to dig it up (just seemed like a good title) was just wondering if anyone has one and how long is norm. Ive had a C. lividus go for about 5 months. I think im more anxious because I haven't seen it yet. Thanks for any Info
...most of the Asian fossorials and arboreals are relatively cheap or even dirt cheap here. I am not exaggerating when I say I can get a 1/2" C. lividus sling for $CA5/3.5€ (though this is an extreme example) or a sexed female 4" C. sp. "Bach Ma" for $CA60/42.7€. At the same time, some of the...
...approaching 5" DLS after her recent molt, though given she's never fully shown herself since then I can't be sure.
On topic: Got three C. lividus slings recently (for just $5 per sling....got to love Ornithoctoninae prices over here). They're all unsexed, but with three I probably should get...
P. sazimai has more of a purple-ish blue tone to it. Definitely resembles C. cyaneopuscense more but the blue on my A. mooreae specimens are far deeper that the camera doesn't pick up, blue kinda like with C. lividus
...actually had a much easier time getting a look at my juvenile Cyriopagopus schmidti (was constantly out before its molt and rehouse, is a lot shier now but still makes at least one appearance on most days) and sling C. lividus (hasn't even bothered to burrow...) than many of their arboreal...
The spermathecae looks consistent with C. lividus (as consistent as possible considering the quality of the photo).
You also have it from one of the foremost authorities on theraphosidae in the world (Haplopelma lividum is the same as Cyriopagopus lividus):
@The Spider House
Sorry I should have stated also, I looked up Thai blue when I got to the car, which of course brought up the lividus. The guy came out to his van so I ran out asking was it a colbalt blue. He said no, it was something else? Not something that’s common. But who knows. It’s so infuriating, I like...
It was sold as Thai blue, which is C. lividus. We've determined in this thread that it's likely a Cyriopagopus, and that it's blue - so is it not Cyriopagopus lividus? Looks like one to me...
I bought an adult female chile rose about 25 years ago. 3 days later I bought an adult female P.murinus, C.darlingi and (as it was back then) H. lividus, along with about 50 mixed spiderlings.
I googled Thai blue and it came up and the cobalt blue, I asked him was it this and he said no. He said he would give me the Latin name later via msg. I’ve been ignored. I just had to take it home but I really want to make sure I have the best environment for it. Feel really bad for it. It’s...
