Thanks! Im sure you could. They are not as bad as P. murinus.
Well I do have an angry P.muticus so I may have some good experience and I've raised much faster spiders so I suppose I could get used to the personality as it grows.

Congrats on the chromatus pairing! My female Nhandus just chase the males like lightning, and try to kill them. One of the reasons Nhandu isnt much interest to me.

Started reading this thread from page one a few days ago - all I can say is WOW, and thank you. :D You have me wanting to try my hand at breeding once my slings mature. Love all the pics; your specimens are gorgeous. I like your A. genic, P. irminia and C. marshalli females especially. Can't wait to see more of your work. :)

First time I paired him with my gal, he just kept running away
So I gave him a chance with another fellas female, she grabbed a hold of him with a vengeance and by the time we got them separated he was leaking pretty good from his carapace :(
A few days in ICU and a 10 days vacation from being a gigolo and he was good as new.
Second pairing with my gentle natured female went way better as you saw from the video
My friends N chromatus has been power fed since the incident, we're going to give the little guy another chance to stick it to her tomorrow :D

Well if you end up needing another male, i have one. I have given up on pairing some species, chromatus being one of them. Good luck with the other pairings!

Well, i might be keeping every single gabonensis to myself! Depends on if the guy i loaned my male to gets lucky or not. Im looking to have around 20 females of this species. Thanks!

Then you wouldn't mind if I took the I. mira slings off your hands then ;)

I'm pretty jealous of your collection to be honest!
