looks likely gravid

I hope so. One of my other T blondi had a sac earlier this year but the eggs were bad
This one has the same tennis ball shape to her.

Both are beautiful, but I especially love the male Avic. The coloration and those "fiber optic" tipped setae are gorgeous!

Recently moulted Poecilotheria subfusca (LL) AF.

Mature Male is primed and ready for some subfusca sexy time when she has had a few big meals to get her back to prime condition.

Today I have successfully rehoused 85 blue floofers from successful pairing of Caribena versicolor.

Earlier photos showing the original sac when pulled at day 48 (sac was dry) and development into L1 can be found here....

Caribena versicolor

Egg sac pulled from mum at day 48. Just in time by the looks of it as dry in there. Now in incubator.

Caribena versicolor

Slings starting to pop out now. Looking so much better than when the sac was pulled a few days ago (link below) https://arachnoboards.com/gallery/caribena-versicolor.83473/

H chillensis moulted today. Looks stunning but not able to sex from moult as the business end was trashed. 2.5 inch DLS.

No sign whatsoever of bulbs or hooks though and as this is a small species was always leaning towards female anyway (bought a few years ago as suspect female and this is 'her' first moult with me)

@viper69 I believe you know this species pretty well?

At 2.5 inches am I outside the 'could still be a male' range?
