Post mating behavior, vigorously rubbing the epigastric furrow region immediately after mating, often seen in Asian tarantulas. (although I'll prob get 50 youtube comments that its normal amd there rose hair and pink toe do this all the time:rolleyes:)

Awesome! Good luck.:)

How big are your girls?

Dustin
Most are around 6" or larger.I'm thinking my males are pen-ultimate to so hopefully will be able to pair these up sooner than later!I really think this is one of the nicest looking arboreal spiders.They totally don't get the attention they deserve!Very underrated spiders IMO!

Awesome Chris, how big are yours getting? All of mine just molted for the first time and they are looking pretty cool. Brown legs with black abdomens.
Mine are maybe about 1.5" or so..really cant wait for these to start showing adult coloration.Absolutely gorgeous spiders!!

Yeah, they might be my favorite spider right now. :) Mine aren't far behind yours. All of them just molted into the 1-1.25" range.

I gotta get some more! :D
