Edna- Mature Female G. Rosea​


Petey- Mature Male H. Lividum​


Pandora- Hopefully Female H. Lividum​


No Name Yet- Hopefully Male G. Rosea​


No Name Yet- L. Parahybana​


No Name Yet- B. Smithi​


No Name Yet- P. Murinus


That's it for now... Hopefully I will be able to find a nicely priced T. Blondi sling in the near future to add to my collection, and I am sure I will accommodate a few more before I am able to afford the T. Blondi. Also, any name suggestions would be great... Thanks for looking and I hope you enjoyed my pics...​

VERY nice!

Your H. lividum looks like a vonwirthi or sp. "vietnam" to me... but I am not accustomed to haplos and probably haven't seen many MM lividums LOL

Yeah I know... I can't wait until they're fully grown... I really can't wait for my H Lividum and G Rosea so I can attempt at my first breeding projects...

don't want to mess your hopes, but that MM H. lividum is going to be long gone till that sling matures.

MM H Lividum

I know that mature males only live like 5-6 years and the females live 15+, but my MM H Lividum is just now a year old. I bought him in Febuary of this year and he was 3/4". He just hooked out in October. I thought that was incredibly fast but I sent pictures of his tibial spurs to Ken the Bug Guy and he said he was mature, so I am hoping that my H Lividum sling will be a mature female in the next year and a half or so...

You need to do more research my friend, Mature Males do not live 5-6 years. After maturity they live as short as couple months up 1 year or so. The bad new is your male will be dead long before your female matures. Getting a male to mature in 8 month seems fast, but to get a female mature in the same time not happening.

I was not intending to mature that male so fast, it just did. I didn't even know he was a male until he hooked out. As far as doing research I could swear that I read that males typically live half of what the females do. I was off on my years, males seldomly live 4-5 years and after maturity their lives are almost over. I guess I was just hoping to get 4-5 years out of my male, and didn't know he was close to the end of his life.

I think miscommunication is leading to the confusion. Males of some species will live 5-6 years, but not as mature males.
