Hello
I have bred a few specimens before, but this was different from all the others in many ways. Got the male yesterday,added him this morning. There was literally no pause and I mean nothing at all,it took one tap and 5 seconds for response and first insertion. In a few minutes I counted 10...

Okay I have had about enough of people when they read communal falling of the bus and not reading clearly,I will paste the applicable definitions unless they'd like to rewrite the English dictionary. This is now happening due to the fact,that on another forum communal setup is not acceptable and...
They have been together for a few years,the first male who died off naturally only tried mating the largest female. Now there is a new male,and he has literally mated all the large females and is even now trying to mate with a smaller female which in my opinion isn't ready since she is way...

Hello everyone
Me and one other member have had a fun discussion about the following
- A.Broncklehursti
- A.Ferina
That have both been reclassified as jnr synonyms for a different Acanthoscurria specimen(Theraphosoides). I will add the appropriate links etc.
I apologise for being away for a week,I had an expo to do. I also had the pleasure to work closely with Ice T and coco,they are truly awesome people ! Really love their fans,I can't say I saw them once refuse or shy away from interacting.

Transferred to other genera:

I had the privilege to help two people so far, this is just sharing one of the two stories. He had arachnophobia, so he got to see my specimens and even saw their daily things they do. He saw they weren't as vicious as people make them out to be,where I blame the media the most. After a while he...
