A little concern of my Brachypelma klaasi

[BoyFromLA]

Update

It matured on 08/14/2024, and turned out to be a male.





I searched and found a loving match, then it was sent away.

I was promised to get six sings back once the breeding goes successful.

On 01/18/2025, I received this beautiful photo of the female, hopefully gravid.



Now I am crossing my fingers.

These photos I received today.

The egg sac was pulled. The female was not so happy about it being taken away, of course.




The timing of pulling the egg sac was perfect. On top of that, the result is amazing.




Thanks to @John2097, and both the male, female tarantulas for these beautiful offsprings.

I am very excited for yet another successful breeding loan attempt.
