Congratulations! Did you mate her or was she gravid when you got her? Awesome either way, keep us updated.

Yes, I mated her to this male who I thought was going to die when he first became mature. He had a bloody blob on his ass that hardened up. He became an excellent stud spider. In fact, I'm looking to sell him now. I no longer have a need for him, and he is still a worthy candidate for mating from what I can see by how active he is. Hes annoying as a matter of fact. I always hear him climbing around and picking at the corner of his 5 gallon:)

Then


Few weeks later after a sperm web.


A few days ago still looking to hook up:)


This is the female folding the sack.


Doing a little cleaning, moving stuff around.


Clear shot before she went into guardian mode.


All done, now its time to hurry up and wait:)

Why not, its a male. A mature male, and proven. Hes not around to win a beauty pageant. The main mission has nothing to do with his crusty butt.

In fact....

He cant flick annoying hairs so he might be perfect for people who have sensitive skin.

See?

A silver lining.

Well personally I would'nt SELL it, I would give it away for a try on breeding but I would'nt ask money for a specimen that got an abdomen of blood

Do you know the cause ? cuz the abdomen got a very weird formation like if it was deshydrated on the last pic

I don't know the cause, all i know is it doesn't matter when it comes to breeding. It was a bad molt. Thats as much as i know.

Personally I would sell it. I bought it to mate, raised it up, no one gave it to me. It cost me money. Now, its mature, it mated, it got me a sack, now he can do the same for someone else.

It drinks when it wants, the bowl is full right now, as I type. Did you look at this thread?

Why should I "give" it away.

Please, explain in detail.

I'm a capitalist btw.
