anyone like purse webs

[super-pede]

anyone keep them or want to keep them?

 

[Chris_Skeleton]

I want to. I have Sphodros in my state, haven't seen one though. I gotta go hunting sometime. I always find Myrmekiaphila, but im not complaining. It's so cool to have native Mygalomorphs. Nothing better than free pets

Do they make good purses?
I need a purse web so I can purchase more T's.:}
Sigh... I wish there was a wallet web spider.

I like them. They form a unique group of spiders. Only 4 mygalomorph species are found in Hungary, 3 of those are atypids. One day I'm going to go on a field trip in hopes of finding them.

I own 2 Purseweb spiders

Sphodros abotti Purseweb spider
Calommata simoni African Purseweb spider

They are extraordinary

best times for hunting?

I was going to start a completely new thread on this topic, but since you guys are already talking about pursewebs I'll just tag it on to yours I've been told we have Sphodros niger in our area but I've never seen one (though to be honest I haven't started looking until recently lol)... I gather that the wandering males are the easiest to target and I'd use them as a tip-off for areas where females may be located... I was just wondering what time of the year you guys have noticed the males coming out? Or even what time of year adult females are best found?
