I've hardly touched my bass since Christmas. I start work at 6am, finish at 2 then go straight to a plastering job to about 7. By the time I'm in and showered and eaten and fed the kids it's time for bed. Can't wait for the plastering to finish so I can get back to playing.

Could it be E. campestratus?

Fair enough.. thank you. I really need my eyes doing it a lot more practice.

Hi, as the title says, this is a gbb. Am I right in thinking female? Thank you in advance.

Well the body was about 2" Doesn't really matter too much now as I sold it anyway. Very boring species I don't have any interest in. Cheers though.

It's ok with 100, I couldn't be bothered and never really suffered when I was into the hobby in a big way. Over 15000 spiders when you include spiderlings. I'd have spent more time making records than feeding.

It's unrealistic to keep records when you have a lot of spiders. I used to mark down mature male moults but that was it.

I haven't seen my E.murinus for over 12 months apart from looking through the bottom of the tank. Def a pet hole. M.balfouri, pretty much the same. They tend to stay hidden but still worth having.

Any clue on the sex please? Thanks in advance.

Thank you. I need to get back into it so I'll have a refresher read.

I'm 10 years out of practice and can't remember how to sex spiders properly... any ideas?

Any ideas? Not the best pics sorry...... Part of a collection I bought where there were a few with no labels. I haven't been digging them out to id them, just waiting till I see them. Had a nice surprise yesterday when feeding everything. Threw a ****roach into a pet hole and a lovely C...

Pic?

Hi all. I recently bought a collection and a few spiders didn't have id with them. I've sorted most but 1i have only seen its toes so will wait for it to come out of its hole, then there's this adult male.... Any ode what he is? I'm hoping I have a female knocking around or he's useful to...
