Ive got a MF, a penultimate male, and another(7") female coming today. I've read alot on the subject but there seems to be conflicting info. The BTS is a good source for apophysis and blondi, but stirmi are not mentioned much. AB had some decent threads. So far breeding stirmi seems just like any other tarantula..but people dont seem to have much success. Mine are all false bottom setups, same for Pamphobeteus. Any tips? I really want to breed these Theraphosa. Ive only ever bred a porteri, and have 2 gravid anax and a big pissy Lp thats about to molt out of my last attempt at breeding her. Someone mentioned we hobbyists need to get on it and start breeding Theraphosa more in the states, before they ban the import of one of our greatest genera. I agree, they're  right up there with Phormictopus and Pamphobeteus on my list. Anyway, any advice?</p></blockquote><p></p>
