I know my original plans included leaving the sac with mom until the slings emerged, but after recently seeing someone else end up with a bad sac I became nervous! I still managed to make it to day 53 
I found no evidence of any bad eggs, so I will venture to say that my big lady was an excellent first time mom. Last week the male passed, but now he has babies to carry on his legacy I haven't counted them yet, but I'm grateful to have had success period. I know that some would say it's just A. avicularia, but to me it's a wonderful achievement, and I'm glad that I can contribute to having more of these cb available. I first bred them September 24th, 2009, then paired them three more times. The last pairing was October 7th, 2009. On January 21st, 2010 the female finally got comfortable and laid her sac (I had to rehouse the poor girl twice due to issues with ants).
