New Project....err unexpected

[liquidfluidity]

Is it still a project if you didn't schedule it....or do anything to make it happen?

Piloctenus haematostoma

I have 3, pretty sure, females. Found this yesterday morning. All 3 are a bit different in size. My biggest one, this was the middle ones, looks to be hella gravid too!

Kind of bad timing as I have lots of requests for more C. salei. Luckily I haven't paired them again. I was close...

I'm finding very little information about these guys other than tidbits on husbandry. Does anyone know how many are in one of these sacs? Please tell me a couple hundred....without lying Just not sure if I'm ready to deal with 1500 like the Salei....

If anyone has any sources on good info for these guys, please link me.

I love these guys. Look super cool and pretty mellow, although I keep to doing my duties when they're asleep.

I'll try and post some good pics later as I just dumped my phone. So this is all I have right now.

Oh yeah, sorry...not a tarantula

Prob gonna be around 500 slings or so. Depends on how big that sac is.

Actually sac had issues, but another female dropped a week ago. I need some info on pulling n maintaining until hatch. Never pulled a sac before and am over the chore of leaving with mom.

Anyone want to provide some info or linkage pertaining to true spider sac pulling and husbandry up to hatch?

Pre-thanks!

And the room goes silent. This is Fight Club guys.....

I really wonder why no one, including Google, is sharing info on how to pull true spider sacs and what to do afterwards to have a good hatch.

I know people are doing it.....ugh

And once again, sac was no good. Sounds like this species is not simple and Europeans have similar issues....

Going to send 2 of my 3 girls out for breeding to a friend who has a not quite mature male from a diff dealer. Gingers crossed.
