I did get 4 more. Quite a bit smaller but I think they've been under fed. Once I get them all beefed up, my plan is to rehouse them all at once and see if they play well together.... This guy/gal is maybe 2"

Down to 1 Liphistius yangwe. 1 matured and never went back to his burrow. I did throw him in with the other as I assumed she was a female. Not sure if anything happened. I left him in until he expired

Really hoping a sac comes out of this but not holding my breath. Once the Balfouri are moved, I plan to give her an enclosure upgrade.....unless she's sitting on a sac

Hmmmm, not really sure. Depends if the Liphistius is sitting on a sac soon. I will go over my collection tonight to see if there's anyone I'd let go to a new home. How big are these females and are they molt sexed?

I moved here a little over a year ago. Before the move, I was well over 70 as I was building up a Pokie breeding program and has pretty much found everything that I wanted to start with, and then this opportunity arose. I slimmed the collection down to a mere 15 as it was winter in Iowa and 980 miles to my destination.

I have since started to slowly rebuild my collection. I am a big Phormingochilus fan especially Ackaya so I may have 12 different larger slings across 5 species. Plus a few others.

The Balfouri is just kind of side project and my first group came from a trade of my last Pokies. Soon, they will all be together and free up some room for enclosure upgrades.
