Wednesday 28th september 2016.
I received a mature male and adult female euathlus parvulus. The female was housed in a 14 litre plastic container with a hide. The male was housed in a smaller plastic container with a hide. Room temperture is between 25-28°c.
Both ate straight away.

Attempted pair up, male was drumming at female, she just walked away when he got close.

Monday 3rd october 2016.
Not having much luck with these, male is drumming like crazy, he tried to mate with my paintbrush and is pacing about like hes possessed. Female doesnt seem interested, shes not aggressive, just runs away when he gets close.

Successful pairing, just when i was getting downbeat about her keep running away, he finally got her [emoji3]
First he tried to mate with the paintbrush again when i was trying to move him into her enclosure.

When he got in he walked straight upto her, she ran, he chased and basically climbed on her back, she turned round and he pinned her, she was actually really receptive dispite him having to chase her lol. Multiple insertions, lasted about 10 minutes [emoji13]

Successful 2nd pairing with multiple insertations. Female didnt seem interested at first but then she allowed him to mate when he pushed her back. This pairing lasted abit longer than the first, at one point he had her lay flat on her back while he was above her. As he unhooked and backed away she seemed aggressive towards him and then she ran to the other side of yhe enclosure.
