Hello,
one of my Cyclocosmia ricketti females made egg sac.
I've found it today... a week or two ago her "door" was closed.
She is wild cought. I bought her a few months ago (2010/06/06).
It's import from China. Copulation took place in the wild.
She build a burrow with hatch.
She wasn't very big - about 3,5 cm.
Now I've a question - because it's hard to find some info about trap doors and their egg sacs.
How to care about egg sac ??
I think I'll keep the egg sac in the containter with female.
I've found information that it may take several months before the spiders come out.
humidity - ~80%
temperature - ~ 25*C
