That could have stressed the female enough to eat her eggsac.every day i would check on them.i just look through the the the cage.

i live in spring field mo.where do you find them ?do you have any more?haha I didnt even bother trying to count all of those. That picture was taken after I sold/give away a bunch and the cup was still full! I guesstimate 500-800? This species is native to where I live so I always release most slings. Its my way of replacing the female I caught a few years ago and of course when I collect wandering males in the Fall. The mother of those slings was mated last Fall and I have had her cooling off all Winter. I would say I could get another egg sac really soon if I would bring her inside to warm up. I might do that in the next few days
she was in a new cage to.That could have stressed the female enough to eat her eggsac.
How long has it been? It can take well over 6 months for G. aerio to lay a sack.the g. aureostriata never made a sack.mating went good on all.
What does that mean? Did you house her before the sac was laid, or while she was holding it?she was in a new cage to.
it was about a week before she laid.dumb of me:wall:What does that mean? Did you house her before the sac was laid, or while she was holding it?
I live close to Ava. I find them in Ozark and Taney Countys mostly. Here is a link to the Bug Hunt we had last year. I bet we saw 50 tarantulas that weekendi live in spring field mo.where do you find them ?do you have any more?
C fasciatum will chomp a male too believe me. In fact they seem as bad as GBB for thatHow long has it been? It can take well over 6 months for G. aerio to lay a sack.
Neither C. crawshayi or GBB's would be a good choice. GBB females seem (IME) to be absolute male chompers. And that's expensive. Its a waste of money if you're not careful.
I'd suggest. A. avic, G. rosea, P. murinus, or C. fasciatum.

Oh ya, most Grammostola spp. can take awhile to lay an eggsac. Of course it also depends on temperature and such.it was last year for the G. aerio .i didnt know it could take 6 months.
I've never had that problem, in fact, they've been the easiest I've bred. (Except the tiny males kinda tend to be pretty quick). Females seem very co-operative.C fasciatum will chomp a male too believe me. In fact they seem as bad as GBB for that
are the Brachypelmas slowerGrammastola and Aphonapelma do EVERYTHING slow. Thats why I dont keep very many, in fact I dont even own a Grammastola and dont plan to anytime soon
I believe they aren't as slow as Grammostola or Aphonopelma. Just a little bit faster. :?are the Brachypelmas slower
I agree I have co habited my male and females before with no problem. You look at them wrong and they get gravid. They were the first species I ever bred and the female I had double clutched, second one was bad but the first one went without any problem.I've never had that problem, in fact, they've been the easiest I've bred.

No you are right, I still have not found a species that grows any slower then G Rosea. Talk about taking their time good grief, Ill be 60 before my slings shows some color.I believe they aren't as slow as Grammostola or Aphonopelma. Just a little bit faster. :?
