Acanthoscurria brocklehursti - This didn't end well. Not only did she go after him, but she chased him. Though I tried to separate them she managed to pull off leg I and III on his left side. Not sure how he can perform without that first leg. Acanthoscurria aren't the nicest when it comes to pairing.


Brachypelma auratum


Ceratogyrus darlingi


Cyriocosmus elegans
-stayed locked up for 2 hours and 45 minutes!




Heteroscodra maculata:


Hysterocrates gigas:
-The coolest pairing ever. They have the most unusual methods of getting the job done. By far my favorite spider to pair thus far.-




Poecilotheria miranda
These guys are a bit unusual relative to other pokies. Much nicer to the males it seems.


Poecilotheria regalis:
Lightning quick pairing so I missed the pic.


Psalmopoeus irminia


Sericopelma sp. "rubronitens"


Theraphosa stirmi
2 males, 2 freshly molted females, and a camera. It is a dirty Theraphosa party.

This is intriguing, what do they do differently?


Nice pairings. Your miranda female is a beauty! Love the auratum as well, definitely need more in the hobby :)

The females lift their abdomen almost vertical, and the male has to get almost completely under her to get the insertion.

Joey, if that male is still around, I have a proven female who would like the company. :)

I have a couple more girls for him, then I can probably send him your way. I still need to send you some of the horned baboons too.
