Haplopelma lividum

they did it immediately after the male was placed in her enclosure. no foreplay, no dinner with candles, no introducing to parents.. weird world.. :)

Hi

Nice nice yes. Sometimes small males pairing better than biggers.

thanks :)
when i've mated her for the first time, i had even smaller male. And they were living together for feew weeks (it was hard to catch the male when he was hiding in her burrow and well, i was also a little bit too lazy). after IT the male just turned 180degrees, made few steps and stayed on the outer side of the box. no life-run :)
now i will try to follow some advices i got from Mikhail Bagaturov and let's pray for some babies...

Yes she looks like she was roughed up a bit making it to the petstore, she also molted in a new leg some time ago. I ran her picture past Volkner Von Wirth and form what he told me and hearing the different opinions I'm inclined to agree with you guys. She's sealed herself in her burrow so I'm pretty sure there is a molt comming soon and I'm going to try to get some fresh pics of her in good condition for some comparisons.

Thanks again guys

Haplopelma albostriatum is the scientific name I got when I purchased mine..I got it as a thai tiger and with a little more research discovered it was a thai zebra not a thai tiger...mine look just like that one..and he's pretty aggressive..how about yours?
Yes she is very aggressive, a friend of mine purchased the 2nd one at the store and dug her up after she got settled in to check on her. He told me that it was going to be a long time before he does that agian. Mine burrowed right next to the glass (which I thought was very considerate) so I can look in on her now and again with out any trouble.
