1st ever successful feeding video H pulchripes

[Whitelightning777]

This is the very first feeding video for Hybris. I didn't even have time to set up a tripod. She had rebuilt her burrow again so I wasn't even sure quite where to aim. Rest assured, the capture is good!!

Her colors, even at the sling stage, are absolutely amazing!! These guys make a great 1st OW T and a possible great 2nd terrestrial if your first was a look but don't touch pet like Lasiodora, Nhandu or A geniculata or something similar.



The enclosures area easy to set up. See my pics and YouTube channel for more info, but they are fairly quick so do your unboxing in a controlled setting where they can't really fall down and have no place to run.

The unboxing video link for her (unsexed but I'm hoping for a girl) had already been posted. I can repost the link if desired.

Beautiful spider. I wish they didn't hide, I'd have three of them.

That was cool! She looks like she has vibrant colours already for sure.

I'm surprised they show the true colors so early. In the morning I catch her hanging out of the burrow. I think they get a little bit bolder with each molt.
