I've had them since october 2006.
I bought them as tiny little slings, 1/4 inch or so. Now they have all (there are 5 in there) molted 3 times, and still doing great! They actually share the burrows and silken tunnels sometimes, very interesting!
What size tank do you have them in? Will you leave them together until adult hood? And even then.. leave them together permanently? Never heard of these being kept communally.. good stuff! :D Gorgeous pictures. The pokies and maculata are the best!

Hi Becky

Currently they're in quite a small cricket container. However, once the have molted again, I will place them in a large kritterkeeper.
I intend to keep them together permanently, possibly even breed them while they are in the same enclosure. However, if one of them gets eaten I'll seperate them, just to make sure the others will be fine :)

Again, very nice collection and the pics are outstanding! What about some pics of their enclosures? Especially the "webbers".

Paul, my enclosures are pretty basic, so there's not much to show :}
Here's a few new T shots though!

Thanx!
Yes, I take them out. IME the spiders are a bit calmer outside their enclosures, and it enables me to get better pics :)

No problem :)
Here's a few pix of my Holothele sp. "Norte de Santander"
Little guy matured on me... :wall: Now I'll have to find him a mate.
By the way, the coin for size reference is about an inch in diameter.

I wish you the best of luck. I don't see that species offered, so hopefully you get a successful sac.
