Mary that is so cool and my god the females do look a lot bigger than the males!

[Mary]

Our second one we found in the garage yesterday, Trudi, she is bigger than Terri.

[Tegenaria]

I found that mine was like an arboreal so i kept it in a tall container,else it would constantly be by the lid of the tank

[Mary]

The set ups for Larry

[Tarantula]

Friend of mine kept a male of T. domestica. He gave him MUCH food and kept him warm. When the male later died he had reached a legpsan of 13cm (5").

[Tegenaria]

Niklas, that'll be T.gigantea, the one I had got quite big but was male. If it was female it would have been a lot bigger I reckon.

[Theraphosidae]

First time i ever saw an adult female Tegenaria gigantea a change of underwear was needed afterwards! :P

[Tegenaria]

John,I gotta find me a female,hard to belive a British spider can get so big,I call it the english Tarantula! :biggrin:

turns out it was a tegenaria that got me into spiders in the first place. i used to feed one that was behind a chest in my conservatory. never tried to catch it tho it was way too quick to bother.

Yea they are realy fast, but so are Scotophaeus, the Mouse Spider!

[Mary]

turns out the scotophaeus in my area arent fast enough to escape as the two ive managed to catch sat on my wall and ceiling. trouble is i caught a mature male which moulted then died, then a few days later i caught a female which i still have and has eaten a few pinheads. now if i could just get anuva mature male ill b happy

[Mary]

Trudi, one of our Tegenaria's decided to show the Tarantulas's how to do it yesterday, we also have a spiderling in captivity just to see how long it lives and
how big we can get it to, guess what it's name is??????????????

Answers on a postcard please.....

[Gigas]

I may get some slings off you when those sacs hatch Mary, my female i had kept with a male for a week recently died so my dreams of slings were dashed.

[Mary]

Chris, I have them coming out of the tanks everywhere, would you like an eggsac?? There is one in Terri about to hatch......

Would you like a Steatoda sac too???
