[paassatt]

Yeahhh!!!!!

That is without a doubt one of the best pics I've seen here on AB. I hope you get a good and plentiful sac from her, Jason. I'd snap up a sling in a heartbeat.

Awesome pics Jason, gotta love the sexual dimorphism in Ornithoctoninae!

Thanks, Chris! It's a beautiful thing, isn't it?

Definitely is a world of difference between appearance of the males and females of that genus, but I wasn't previously aware that it was consistent with the entire sub-family, as Chris mentioned there .
Top notch pairing pics there Jason, going by the size difference, probably a good plan to let her eat her fill beforehand

Thank you, Matt! She's been chowing down ever since that pairing.

Good luck Jason!

Thank you, Chad!

this is one pic thread i cant stay away from.. so many beautiful ts, and SO MUCH going on. You must be a busy guy Jason... i really love that C. ritae. I MUST add one to my collection. Hope the Ornith paring goes as well as all your others seem to. Good luck

Cyriopagopus is quickly becoming my favorite genus.

Thanks man, they both molted recently so I figured I'd do a side by side comparison again and now it's pretty obvious. I was having a heck of a hard time trying to sex them out until now.

-Chris

Thanks, Chad. I'll let you know how the breeding goes in 2014 or 2015.

Thanks, Chris. No idea on the sex yet, they came in as unsexed. I'll let them settle into their enclosures for a couple months before I try sexing them. They are absolutely huge btw. Somewhere in the 8" range.

Dude where do get those animals from, must be from the Mafia.

Forgive my ignorance with regards to the lingo, but are the Pho eves Phormingochilus everetti?

Wow!Have fun with those crazy things haha!

[Philth]

Nice stuff, the hardwickei are sweet. I've got a space on my shelf reserved for them,...for years now

Later, Tom

 

[jbm150]

Hoooly mother of God where did you get the everetti???!!! Freakin' awesome!!! I'm so jealous!

That's rhetorical, as to where you got them. I'm glad either you or Chris got some, you guys (and a few others) are our best hope of getting them established in the hobby. Awesome awesome pickups!
