Yeah...... No. What are you thinking, like ~850 eggs? Honestly IMO, Phoneutria breeders are just on a whole other level in the hobby.

We'll see. It's loaded to the top.


There's far worst.

do the babies pose any risk? or are they too small to penetrate skin?

The fangs will probably be too small.
Anyways, there are plenty of techniques that provide a low risk.

just was wondering if you could use your hands like you can with tarantula nymphs

Probably. I prefer a brush. Phoneutria ist really on the easy side when it comes to true spiders.
Piloctenus is far more agressive (they try to attack me at a bodylength of 0.7mm) and Cupiennius sp. or Heteropoda sp. is outstanding when it comes to jumping and speed.

1.0 Gandanameno sp.
Lucky me!

This young girl (D. triton) was very active tonight! Two weeks after mating the egg sack is here!


And Heteropoda venatoria had nothing better to do either!

Heteropoda maxima one day after molting with a current leg span of almost 20cm.

Did the sac end up hatching? Curious to see how many (approx.) were in it.

That’s pretty cool, congrats on the all the babies. Are you planning to keep them together for a while until they’ molt another time or two to make them easier to work with?
