Wallflower, my male Dolichothele diamantinensis, matured three weeks ago and is finally venturing out of his web tunnel. It's time to find him a date!

My Venezuelan Stud Tiger! He looks great!

Harpactira pulchripes - he is easily twice the size of my other MM of this species. I wish I could find him a date.

Hi guys,

I dont think MMs get as much appreciation as they should. I know most turn out dull but there are loads of species that look great when they mature. I thought I would start this thread so we could all share photos of our own handsome fellas. Please share yours.

Attractive or not they deserve it

I'll start with these ..

I'd almost mistake that for a C. lividus.

Just because he is getting older doesn't mean he's stopped wandering in search of a female.
