here are my notes


Mated with my own male on 27/08/2005 @ 10:56 pm. I also just received the male on the same day and mated them immediately. Mating went well the female was drumming to the male and male responded and mated with no problems.

2/11/2005 Female found with egg sac

23/12/2005 Female still with egg sac. Egg sac has increased in size. A good sign.

01/01/2006
egg sac hatched


temperature of her enclosure is about 23 to 24c every week I poured a little water down one side of her tub to maintain humidity. Other than that her enclosure is pretty dry.

When will you be moving them away from Mum and seperating? I heard A purp slings were quite cannabilistic?
Congrats!
Hopefully my girls will have the same result although the way my silly spiders have been of late I doubt it!

I think they will be fine with the mother for a little while yet and its the 1st I've heard that.

This morning

from 1st glance there looks like there are about 50+ slings there and as you can see by the pic the sac is still quite big and slings are still emerging

[Adam Walters]

Fantastic news, well done!

If you sell them, then I'd like to take a couple of your hands

[Graeme Wright]

better keep a whatch on the bulitin board then

[Layla McInnes]

Is the fem quite small? Or are those slings big? I have got A purp slings and they look much smaller in comparison to the AF?!
Good luck with the rest hatching!
