I think she has assumed the egg laying position about ten minutes ago. I keep looking to see so I can try to get shots of the eggs.

Hi Ryan,
how long is it since she was mated? We are watching a Pederseni here but there is no sign of a sac yet. Also, just out of interest how long does it take you to feed and check those thousands of slings you must have by now? You must have an army of helpers helping you

Na I am not over run yet. I sell off and trade off a lot of them when I have them. Feeding is done in sides now. I just rotate wall to wall.
She was mated back in mid/ late Oct. So just about 3 months.

Congrats Ryan. Once again, great job. Now get some sleep!

 

[Talkenlate04]

Eggs are out now. And yes now I am going to crash and get some sleep.

 

[KenTheBugGuy]

Great

That is really neat! Your picture time line is a nice capture of events too. Make sure to let me know when you start selling those slings

You're gonna wake up in a cocoon one day.
C'mon stop being lazy and get with the updated pics....

Hey now I had to sleep! Then get up and send off some slings. But without further delay, here are the final pictures.

Holy Crap!!!!

I'd wish you luck, but we all know you do not need it!

Very exciting. GREAT job!

congrats bro
how long since first pairing?

About 3 months. This egg laying was cool because it was the first time I have seen one make a suspended egg sac. The sac itself did not touch the ground while it was being made and that is why it's so darn white!

 

[Austin S.]

Holy crap!! That thing is huge!!! Good luck man!

 

[Talkenlate04]

It is a pretty good size considering she is a tick under the 5" mark. Her poor booty is looking kinda of sickly though. Little prune girl now.

 

[funnylori]

She does have the cleanest sac I have ever seen. Her poor bum. Tarantulas are kinda sad when they look like raisins...

 

[Talkenlate04]

11 days later.

87 perfect eggs showing great signs of development, in the closeup you even can see the legs forming. Not to bad for a girl that is right at 5"

Very nice :clap:


Do penderseni females mature pretty small? I thought they did anyway. How big was the male?

The male was about 6.5". I am not to sure what the max size is for these guys. This was my first breeding attempt with them and the female is the first sling of them I had ever raised. I got her last spring as a 1" sling and she gave me babies less then a year later.

Wow she grew up fast. Well I have those two girls here that are at the 5” mark so I’ll find out their max size sooner or later.

Well take it easy and congrats on all the sacks :clap:
