P. ultramarinus

Hi Chid,

I have a group of four females and two immature male that I will be trying to reproduce eventually.

I keep mine between 70% to 80% humidity with a mildly humid substrate.

Temperature around 22 to 24 Celcius at night and about 26-27 Celcius during the day.

I never had problems with keeping P. ultramarinus in those conditions but I also never read an "official" caresheet for those... so take this as a suggestion but not an absolute thing...

I hope this helps, good luck with your magnificient addition...

Martin

This may sound like a stupid question (because it probably is) but, I have noticed many people here like the pamphobeteus sp. Since I know nothing about them would some one care to clarify what makes these T's so desirable?

Ultra

Hardy captives rarely available in the states. Here is a pic of a subadult female, she's shed once since 2001, she's huge since pictured and due to shed soon. Can't wait to see those steely blues! Several US breeding projects will be underway soon.

Wow! These tarantulas look amazing! Are they pricey like most other phampho's? They are just amazingly cute! I have to have one! But a 13 year old kid is not made of money! lol
Thanks for the pictures guys they look great!

Pamphobeteus ultramarinus breeding

Hi all, I posted this pic a while ago but thought some might still enjoy it.

Although they bred easily and were super peacefull unfortunately nothing came of my 1999 breeding. I hope to have success with my girls in the next year.



Sorry for the poor quality pic - it's all I have left of this pair.
Thanks for looking, Gabe

Does anyone believe in love at first sight?

I love my Brachy's but gee's that pampho has just gotta be on santa's list, I have never seen such a beautiful spider:}

I am lost for words, it is absolutley GORGEOUS.
Are they all like this one. Are they ow or nw. Are they aggressive? Can they be held? Jay

I've had my P.Ultramarinus 'Jinx' for about four years now, still not sure what sex and from the pics I've seen on this thread, mine is either male or has an eating disorder!
I decided that Jinx is male from the abdomen size, yet I'm not seeing any hooks. Perhpas he's still too juve.
His feeding is about 6 crickets max in about a week, then he ignores any more that are provided.

Riight now he's acting sluggish and clambers a bit before sitting down for long periods with his abdo on the substrate.

I can't find any care sheets about P.Ultra's and I'm concerned that I've not been properly houising/feeding him over the years. He's still alive though, so I want to give him 100% what he needs.

I'll post a pic for feedback soon.

Any suggestions for feeding/housing info care sheets etc etc?
