Hey guys,

Thanks!!!
I removed egg sack #2 from the female on day 15 this time and opened it on day 21 which leads me to beleive the sack is probably close to a week older than I had originally thought as their development is similar to the timeline of the first sack. I kept both females in the same area so when #1 laid her sack I didn't go near them for 2 weeks which could account for the difference.

She is lovely, I really need to get one of these!
A good way to tell if a t is wild caught or not is if the t looks rather tatty and sort of scuffed/slightly bald... Although I suppose this isn't the case for some t's

Thanks To All Of You
Hello everyone!!!
I hate to post answering "yes or not" or "thank you" or "im agree with you or somethin else" just because I wanted to raise my post number. I never though to post 100+ posts in here since i became member back in2004. thanks for congratulate me for my 100+ he he he
Honestly I hate to do that, but anyways, my lividum is doing great, I had a few concerns about my lividum as for example they need lots of peatmoss like 15 cm high of it at least. I only put around 8 cm. because I ran out of peatmoss, now I got some more of it, but she alreally started to dig a hole, and she seems to be fine like that, so I think I will left my H. Lividum terrarium like that. I added a huge natural dry drift wood on it and shes digging towards below the drift wood, that will be great.
Regarding to the WC issue enless theme.
I do not know wether my H. Lividum is WC or not, because I feel theres to much to learn for me about T's but I always try not to get WC T's specially if they are Brachypelmas species, they are endangered species. Mexico is the fifth country in biodiversity in the globe, but we Mexicans and the rest are finishing with the population of Brachyplemas, we already stinguished my beloved Mexican grey wolf, parlots, birds, mammals, coyotes, hawks, eagles, bears deers, and losts of animals during the past 50 years.
As long as I know the people paint brachypelmas in black color in order to disguised the Mexican or US Customs and they exported T's as Aphonopelmas, or Gramastolas pulchras. It is imposible to reintroduce brachylemas raised in captivity back to were they belong, because that would decrease the pureness of the blood. As a Mexican I feel the urgency and the duty to protect not only mexican T species but also the others.
Sorry I just wanted to raise my hand and express my point of view.
Thanks again to all of you, It has been great to belog to this great site and to know and learn a lot from you "MEMBERS", It has been great to meet people who share this "GREAT HOBBIE".
