Tarantula: 'world record'

[Crows Arachnids]

Great! although not good enough! sorry bud! ive got P irminia at a staggering 25 days from mate to sack! also only one mate and then he was dinner! my female was close to a molt though!

Good job!

My P. irminia actually is sitting on a sac right now, I believe I mated her 3 weeks ago, so I believe you entirely, I didn't record their mate date but I'm pretty sure it hasn't been longer than 3 weeks, it's amazing. My Grammostola pulchripes took 11 months to drop her sac

Yeah, I actually posted pics on this site of them a while back, a little over 3,000 eating spiders.

That is great! A hell of alot of work though!
Im sitting with about 1500--->2000 1st stage! (young female!)
But she did a great job!

My P cancerides also took 11 months (and the eggs were infertile!)

Sweet!

Is still consider that the largest leg span ever "officialy" proved it was a Theraphosa blondi caught in Venezuela in the late '60.

A lot of people talks about "13" " leg spans in Apophysis, which none of those seem to be "officially" proved.

As far as Myself, I have had several Apophysis (adults ) and althought leggier, never reached over 11".

They said it was a Klugi, althought if the numbers weer right (which I doubt) when my Theraphosa died and I weighed her it was already heavier than that
Klugi...So :?

I personally dont think any Lasiodora will get heavier than Blondi.

May I ask where you were getting the information about these records from? Not that I'm doubting you but I like to check things out myself.

Honestly, I dont remmember where.
About the largest Blondi, its been in the books "forever".

About the Klugi, thats besically what is said around the boards/web,
I never came across anything "oficial" myself.
