Amazing coloration and patterning. The next best Old World arboreal, after Poecilotheria and Cyriopagopus.

Thanks.
I agree, those spiders are to shy this female has a large burrow in her terrarium:?

 

[murmur]

Not too happy about moving to a new home. About what size are the females large enough to breed?

 

[jbm150]

Did she just molt? Her fangs look white. I think I've heard around 4 - 5 inches for mating

 

[murmur]

It was about a day or so after her last molt, I believe. The ends of the fangs were black. She is almost exactly 4 inches now, so I suppose I'll let her molt again first.

Agreed, Dimo those are some great shots, I'm about to get a baby H mac so I can't wait to get the little fuzzy monster!

Truly amazing pictures. I have a small H. mac that I barely ever see. It's always in it's burrow. :? Only comes up once in a while to grab a quick snack.
