Re: Is this spider in the hobby
Hello BigEars,
Thrigmopoeus truculentus has been bred by JM VERDEZ last year. Three eggsacks hatched. Interesting sitenote: this species has a hammock-like eggsack (like the one of Citharischius crawshayi). VERDEZ wrote an article about the habitat, keeping and breeding Thrigmopoeus truculentus:- VERDEZ, J.-M. & F. CLÉTON. (2003): Thrigmopoeus truculentus, Pocock 1899. DeArGe Mitteilungen 8(4): 20-26.
And last year on a price list of a big German dealer I saw WC specimens offered.
One of the spiderlings I got from Jean-Michel:
all the best,
Martin
