That large arboreal thread got a few of us hooked on C. schioedtei I see. I'm trading my MF H. lividum for at least one this weekend.

Cool purchases. Ken has the best communication/packaging I have seen so far.
That thread got me hooked too. Gorgeous animal. I even have a MET as my background on my PC! Looking forward to gettting some some of these and starting a breeding project.

Just to let you guys know at about 2-3" you can sex this species by the color of the ventral side.Males will start showing green color where the females will be black ;]
Very underated spiders!

 

[Scorpendra]

definitely female, then.

I love the Schiodtei... I currently have 1.2.0 and cannot wait t9o breed these. They're beautiful!

I just got the ok from my mom that i can get one (and the other Ts I want!!! My mom ROCKS) so I'll be ordering one with in days :drool: I'm trying to ensure I'll get a female, I personally don't care for the looks of the males plus I have no intention of breeding.

 

[Scorpendra]

personally, i don't like the look of any mature male asian species. i love the females, though. so this'll be your first old world?

yup. I'm pretty excited. Although I didn't realized how much a female was u-u I didn't think it'd be that much since unsexed 3" aren't so bad, I was really shocked to see how much it was for a female of a not much larger size, I don't know what I'm going to do, I really don't want to buy an unsexed one and it turn out to be male.

 

[Scorpendra]

yeah, it's a 50/50 shot every time. but it always seems to work for me and as Syndicate said above, you know as soon as you see its underside.

ya, I'm thinking about ordering two, in hopes that ones female, and than trade the second one off at the local reptile fair.
