Congrats, I guess good things come in threes :clap:

@ Deschain - They cannot bite at this size for sure... they aren't even feeding yet. As for the size at which they can give a bite, I'm not certain. I would think they would need to be 1.5 inches or so to have mouthparts large enough to bite. I've never been bitten, so I hope to never know for sure.

I didn't know for sure, and thought that was the case. By the time they are big enough to bite, they should already be seperated right...so then I just have to worry about Momma. Thanks again for the info.

I've asked before, and have been told they (a tarantula) can bite when well under 1 inch.

Awesome! :clap: There are few things as cool as seeing hundreds of my favorite species in one spot! :worship:

ive just ordered a h.lividium and brachypelma vagan but i know enough about the latter i was just wondering if there is any infomation for looking after these aggressive beauties ive looked after my mates when he has been on holiday but its nothing like owning your own im well excited they come soon.

Unforunately speaking from personal experience, a 3/4" tarantula can bite you. See http://www.arachnoboards.com/ab/showthread.php?t=40967 for the gritty details.

From what I've heard, a bite from a baby rattlesnake can be worse than a bite from an adult. Supposedly the baby doesn't have very good "venom control" as opposed to an adult. I have no idea if the same thing would be true for inverts.

This is Devora. She did absolutely nothing when we moved her to a larger tank last night. :? She's about 4 1/2"+. I may not get to see her too often, but it's a treat when I do!
