Don't like them obese??....getting fat is part of the natural growth process for all tarantulas.

Man. Such a great genus.

Anyone have H. crassipes pics??

Well my female Hysterocrates sp
molted again last time she lost both pedipalps they grew back nice. Glad to see she has them again. She's molted 3 times in less than a year not sure how many she has.
I would think once they hit maturity it would only be yearly depending on food and temps but I want her to live a nice long life so I dont want to speed things up just to see how big she gets.

I tried to get a measurement but its hard she doesn't stay still very long I am guessing she is between 7 - 7.5 inch legspan 8 cm body.

These are the last group of pictures, I wanted to share, she molted few weeks ago and now got her appetite back so she has had few dubia, roaches I won't bother her again until after she molts, should be 3 or 4 months.
