Lack of m.mesomelas

[mack1855]

So ive been on the lookout for these T.s.Seems to be a lack of these anywhere.there
are m.robustrums,but not mesomelas,or any of the other species from the genius.
Is it a lack of imports,are they notoriously difficult to bred,lack of females/males.

I spend a lot of time searching all the T sites hoping to find anything,heck even slings
but nothing.So you Megphobema folks ,give me clue.

Really? While I don't have a clue about U.S, actually here in Europe they are available more now than in the past. Granted they remain however in the "rare" Theraphosidae league, and IMO they will remain in that 'limbo'.

They were pretty common here in Europe years back but they seemed to vanish.

They have just recently become more available here. I recently bought 2 pairs with the hope of making them more available in the future.

Great creatures they are.

I know a man that here in Italy owned those in the past, and bought one recently.

Eh eh, by far you Brits have the (IMO) best honest prices and a very great, at 360°, assortment. But Germany beats you when centipedes are concerned :-s

Yes. Saw a pic of her and my head wouldn't let me miss out.

There was absolutely nothing to take offence from. I don't even think the Daily Mail could work an angle.

I knew she wouldnt be there for long

I believe I have one of her offspring in my care at the moment heheh

I think we really do miss out big time on pedes.

That's good. They're bloody stunning.

I'd say so. TSS seems to get some of the rarer inverts in. I mean they've got bloody robber crabs in at the moment. Although I don't personally agree with them being sold to the public.

The largest land invert. A huge land crab with immense strength in their claws. Stunning animals.

Ah ah, I'd love to imagine fingers among those claws, maybe while unpacking a "Santa's" present :-s
