Mom is a difficult specimen to take pics of. She is very reclusive and only comes out at night. She is in dire need to molt so she doesnt look all that great now however after she molts I plan to do a photo shoot with her

Thanks Bro! Your article in Invertebrates Magazine inspired me to breed this species. Not to mention the Mom is one of your babies LOL

congrats Brian,

when did you pull and how did you incubate?

I pulled it a couple days ago and I have them in a deli cup with a dry coffee filter with lid off which is them placed inside a larger deli cup with wet towels and and the lid on. There are some holes drilled around the sides of the larger deli cup for a little ventilation. Hope that makes sense LOL

Sure I always share any info I have. This seems to be a pretty easy species to breed. I keep the female in a planted Exo-Terra vivarium with a large piece if driftwood. If I can remember I will take a pic of the Exo tonite. I simply turned the male loose in with the female and left him with her. They would never do anything while I watched but my wife would hear the male drumming at night when she would get up and feed our daughter. The female dug out a chamber in the substrate and disappeared until I dug her up and found the eggs. So yeah both sexes can cohabitate at least for awhile

That is awesome. I am glad that the article helped to inspire and that female really turned out nice. My girl is cohabitating with a male as we speak. She molted right before this and is a little over 8" right now. Fun to see a spider that big still take roaches out of tongs.
