As was said, the Harpactirinae lay hammock sacs.
You then get Heteroscodra, Stromatopelma and Encycrotella that lay fixed sacs.
The hammock sac (like its name suggests) looks like a hammock. Fixed sacs are attached to the inside of the spiders hide, so also can't be rotated either.
Oh, so only the genus Harpactira makes hammock sacs, I thought perhaps others did too. Thanks!

Harpactira are a genus in the subfamily Harpactirinae. Other genra like Ceratorgyrus, Stromatopelma, and all other baboon spiders are in the the same subfamily. Thats about as scientific as i can get without catching my brain on fire :).

Harpactirinae subfamily (the -nae is the important part meaning it's a subfamily I think).
Also includes Augacephalus and Trichognathella.

Thanks! Lol i know what you mean. P. scrofa are usually kinda rough to pair. Have you tried placing her into his enclosure, or placing both of them into a neutral enclosure?

Not yet, I will try that though! I didn't realize those were options lol. There isn't a whole lot of info on breeding the genus.

Interesting, a Ceratogyrus with no horn, but that carapace is rather handsome.

I'm really starting to get into genus Ceratogyrus. I've got some darlingis that I absolutely love. I intend to pick up some marshallis as well. I had no idea meridonalis didn't have a horn though. Guess I'll have to get some of them too!

They're awesome! Great eaters, no hairs to flick, good decorators/burrowers, look cool and/or have the horns. They can be speedy but almost always will run back into their burrow if disturbed. The only time I'm seen threat displays is during a transfer. Definitely get some more. And don't forget about the sanderi, you need one of them too!! ;)

Fasciata, smithi, miranda and tigrinawesseli are all I need to complete my Poecimon collection. Gotta catch me all. See what I did there? God I'm a dork.

You've got the other 9 species?
No, I've only got 8' Rufilata, ornata, metallica, regalis, formosa, striata, vittata, and subfusca highland and lowland. The other i wouldn't even know where to begin shopping for, so I can't count them in my list of wanted pokies.

I'm not even going to attempt to spell it, I fail every time.
