Araneomorph (True Spider) Picture Thread

She'd have separation anxiety. Nah, I better keep her.

 

[catfishrod69]

Haha. I would get some more O. gigantea, but they decide to pop out babies over and over. Im done dealing with fruit flies, so thats why i got out of all trues except widows. I dont keep widow babies, so any sacs laid either get given away, or burnt.

 

[freedumbdclxvi]

I was informed I am not allowed to keep widows. But, then, I was also previously informed I wasn't allowed to keep trapdoors or whipspiders, either, and I have both now. If I ever get to, I want to keep L geometricus. I love their look.

 

[catfishrod69]

Well you better get them now while the getting is good. Better to ask forgiveness than permission lol.

Sorry to chuck this in here but I'm not sure where I'm supposed to chuck it lol Can anyone ID this true spider for me? It's native to China (the south if that helps) I found it on top of a door frame in a school, it's about 3-4" leg span

@ freedumbdclxvi: That is actually a Calommata sp. (Atypidae). Can i ask where did you get this spider from? I've never seen it anywhere in the hobby trade

 

[freedumbdclxvi]

I picked it up from a local member. When I ran a search of the name I had, it seems Ken the Bug Guy was selling some a few years back, but I am not certain that is its origin.

Very cool, but not true spiders.

I actually wanted to make a "non-theraphosid mygalomorph picture thread", but I don't have any photos to start it with >.>

 

[freedumbdclxvi]

Yeah, I put them here since there wasn't another one.

I love your spider set up! The divided tank is awesome! I'm keeping mine (Lats) in mini KKs for now. They seem happy but still, that's a pretty sweet set up!

Sorry for the bad quality with the Nursery web spider, and also, the nursery web spider has molted twice since I have had it, it is now a confirmed male and it is HUGE, at least 2 1/2 inches!
