Be really careful with the Usambara, they are extremely FAST!!

What size are they?
If they are really tiny, keep their substrate moist.
I use peat, because when they are tiny they love to burrow.
The Usambara makes a really nice web to.

I would also like to offer a word of caution on the speed of the H. maculata. Congrats on your new kids!!

Yeah the Togo and the Usambra you will hardly see because they like to come out at night or when no one is around. The Usambra is a webb overboard spider.

Keep them moist, keep them warm, and they'll eat like pigs!

Congratulations Daddy! Are u handing out cigars?!=D
