Genus Cyriopagopus (a.k.a. Haplopelma)

[Lostkat]

Bren has one over in Ireland, Kate & I have two between us, and Dean has two - other than that I don't know who bought them......

EDIT - Lopez here...for some reason it won't let Kate log out!

Hiya mate (nice dress) lol
Brendan had his specimen sent direct the same as mine and was presexed and guarrenteed as female like mine were 2 males 3 females.
so it would be nice to see some ventral shots of the people who own 2 or more in the uk that were purchassed via the show (that we know of ) as dean has 2 it would be nice to see a ventral pic of his other specimen. judging by the size of your specimen @ leon if it came from the same batch as mine I would say male ( unless you have power fed the butt off it lol) it would be nice to see how many pople have paid the price wanted for a male :8o and whos got a male if need be for future breeding in the uk.

I bought 5 specimens. Haven't sexed none of them yet, but reckon it's the exact same deal as with C. schioedtei - dirt easy. Haven't got access to a digicam right now, and do not wish to dig the critters out for now - their sex will remain unchanged anyhow.

heres a ventral shot of my other one. both of these are coming up very close to shedding so there will be no more pics until they have shed and hardened off. even if they r 2 males im not worried because i should be getting 2 more soon and when they go on breeding loan it will be a split breeding. i wont be selling them.

 

[Arachnoking]

sorry about the pic quality in the first shot

the second is the same spider

 

[RichardDegville]

I cant really tell from the ventral pic ( although photo ventral sexing is gay lol)
I would imagine the hard part of sending the males out on breeding loan would be finding a hobbyist with a female whos willing to 50/50 remember £££ €€€ $$$$ will be at stake when they have been bred and not every one will be willing to share there piece of the pie you say you wont be selling them if you do manage to breed them if your missus is anything like mine if i had a 100 £80 each spiderlings sitting in a tank doing nothing and the missus wants her patio and you have just been out on a bender with the lads im sure some will go up for sale or its a few nights on the old dears sofa LMAO

 

[Arachnoking]

i meant i would not be selling a mature male. i would want at least a percentage of resulting offspring.

 

[Steve Nunn]

heres a ventral shot of my other one.

Sorry, but that's probably a male as well. The fusillae seem clearly visible.

A few new pictures for you.

Lopez isn't it a bit dangerous to hold that particular haplopelma?...I heard their venom is the worst out of all haplopelmas...Personally, I think they are awesome...I have 2 of them...

 

[priZZ]

I don't understand why it is good to keep Haplopelma sp. or Poecilotheria sp. or something else on Your hand?

A little bit sad of life, or what???

 

[priZZ]

OK-OK...

I keep my mouth shut! So I'll post here some of my own Haplos.

0.0.1 Haplopelma lividum (before, and after moult)

Showing some pink... öhm... I mean blue... :8o

1.0.0 Haplopelma lividum (before and after moult)

0.3.0 Haplopelma albostriatum (three different females, different size)

1.0.0 Haplopelma albostriatum

0.1.0 Haplopelma schmidti (the same female, each pic after a moult)

0.1.0 Haplopelma schmidti (me and my old lady...)

Cheers,
Marcel

No, it just ran over a tank lid that I was using to move it into position. I decided it was better to let it go where it wanted rather than try to get it off my arm which would have definitely agitated the spider.

As it was in a nice pose I decided to get some pictures!

 

[priZZ]

Lopez, I just want You to know, that I want You to stay healthy!

But that is just because I want You to show us more pix! ;P

I have posted photos of an adult female and ultimate male H. costale here.
