Hmm.... I already mated them 6 times, so probably done ... :)
Drumming was alway quite long, but "the thing" was very short, just like 2-5 seconds.

The same here. So good luck, and keep Your fingers also crossed for me, as I cross mine for You! :D

BTW, what about the T. purpureus male I sent Peter?

Hug me, she says... 5" female. Multi angle shots... {D







Strange E. Murinus... I have her several years now, and never saw her dig a hole... Although they are 100% burrowers.
"Normal" species are seldom seen... I see her 24/7 :?
Substrate is 100 Coco.

Looks like to me she wants to burrow into some skin {D

P.S. Looks like they grow big marble sacks in belgium ;)

No, its because of the yellow "bone-like" stripes on the legs.

yes, heard it, skeleton... but over here we don't use common names... not in belgium.
Here she is in a more relaxed pose...

That cross-section thing you got going on with that T in that second picture is awesome. My H. lividum burrowed in the corner and that was pretty cool since I could see inside with a flashlight. Of course, a little mold started to grow so I had to carefully dig her out. She was not happy of course, but it was for her health. Great pictures of your T's burrow!

did you start the burrow or did she just start digging on her own? My 5' female wouldnt not start her own i had to make an artificaly one which she moved into.
