Sicarius terrosus pictures

[hauser]

Cool pics,r these all quite small still? any tips for breeding them? couse i couldn't find much about them, how long it takes 4 slings to hatch????
i'm looking for details for identifying them myself, i'll try emailing a woman that works in laboratory in US, she's testing S.hahni venom, and she has like 50 of them

i raised some Sicarius cf. hahni from slings. they grow adult in about a year. i keep them at ~85-90F, absolutely dry on sand. no problem mating them, the male survived. after 3 weeks she built the first eggsac and another one every two months (7 till now). usually it takes about 8-10 weeks to hatch, 25-35 slings per eggsac.

Thanks for that! There are some great links to the right of that vid, including a 45min NPR interview. I'm listening to it now...
