So my GBB hooked out on March 20 of this year, 2020; roughly 3 months ago and two years since we got him. The clock is ticking for him!
Here is where he has been documented since we got him in March of 2018: https://www.tarantulaforum.com/threads/three-more-slings.21754/post-166935
He has been on the prowl day and night, looking to serve his purpose and though I've never seen him make a sperm web, I'm sure he's turned his hide into a whack shack.
Here he is with some "white strings" lol
I really want to help him fulfil his destiny, so when a local club member posted his 5.5" MF GBB for sale, I jumped on her. No, not literally.
Here she is in her new home. Exploring last night
Hunkering down this morning
A better view of her enclosure, aka The Love Shack
I positioned a cork bark hollow that has a dog-leg left bend coming out of the substrate here. I'm hoping she finds it appealing and digs out the loose sub I filled it with. I want her to feel successful digging it.
It backs up to the glass so if she does drop a sac in there, I will see it
Her last molt was May 21, 2018 and her last meal was January 1, 2020
The goal now will be to trigger a molt real soon then start conditioning her for breeding, and hopefully my MM and bring it!
More to come on both these beautiful creatures and this project
