Unidentified Grammastola sp., most likely "Concepcion" variety. Petunia is a lovely orangey-pink under natural light, and one of my favorite Ts.

0.1 G. pulchripes (possibly WC)




Mating with biggest male I've ever seen in my life lol (this mating was done only to bring on a moult in the female so they can mate properly before he gets past it)












It worked - the female moulted (photos taken when she was not even dry yet):

That male looks in great condition. It should last a while yet. Mine lasted over a year and a half so good luck ;)

Thank you ever so much. He matured last September I am told. I had to promise his old owners not to loan him out to anyone else and to hopefully get them a baby (or 100 lol) back so they could have him 'live on'. He's definitely got plenty of time left but we got the female without any history of a moult in a good 18 months (probably longer given her size), so we didn't know how long it would be before she moulted. We knew there was a good chance of her moulting out and have read of others mating up to bring on a moult, so thought it was worth a shot. It worked, and fingers crossed it may have worked with our porteri pair too (she has gone black-skinned since being mated). Now when she's hardened up we can mate them up for the real deal.

Here's a couple pictures of my G. rosea, which on a side note I just discovered is probably a male as opposed to a female, which is disappointing because "she" isn't going to live as long as I thought "she" would. Also, sorry for the pictures' glossiness. I messed around with them in a photo editing software and didn't save the originals.

About 2 weeks after the molt, she can still be seen reflecting blue skies off her reflective coat.

G. pulchripes.
