My Chromatopelma cyaneopubescens (GBB) molted into 1st instars (except the yelow egg with leg that is bad) and I shot the timelapsed video, notice the stupid nat near the top of the screen?? LOL......

Awesome vid!

So I've seen a ton of your videos now and have a couple questions, since I've never bred:

After they go from eggs to eggs with legs when do you seperate them? Also do you feed them at that point, or are they still getting nutrients from the 'egg abdomen' portion? If that is the case, when do you know to start feeding them pinheads or roach nymphs. How long can you leave them before canibalism kicks in?

Kept T's for a while, just never have bred them and am super interested in hearing some more information.

They are eggs with legs, then molt into 1st instars (like in the video) and are still feeding off the yolk, when they molt again they will be 2nd instars, getting color and will start feeding....and I will then seperate them.

That is one of the coolest things I have ever seen!! I had no clue that's how T's "were born." I am definately already hooked on this hobby even though I haven't even had mine a week yet ;)
