Avicularia diversipes

[Protectyaaaneck]

Two attempts, both successful:

Female #1 dropped her sac on 3/30/11. I pulled the sac on 4/24/11 to find a mix of eggs and eggs with legs. They began to molt into 1st instar on 4/28/11 and finally to 2nd instar on 5/24/11. Temps were roughly kept between 70-80 degrees throughout the entire process. Humidity within the incubator was most likely near 100%. Final count: 135

Batch #2

Female #2 dropped her sac on 5/1/11. I pulled the sac on 5/21/11 to find eggs and they molted to eggs with legs the very next day. 1st instar was reached on 5/27/11 and 2nd instar on 6/20/11. Temps were roughly kept between 70-80 degrees throughout the entire process. Humidity within the incubator was most likely near 100%. Final count: 140
