0.1 P. metallica molted on me!

[Austin S.]

I have been breeding her for several weeks fearing this would happen.

They constantly stayed by eachother

I counted 13 sperm webs this machine has made in that short amount of time!

I am going to attempt to try them again in about a week/week and a half, then keep them together for a couple more weeks. Then Alex, he is all yours!

Lets hope that we have a bunch of met's next summer, b/c it is great to see so many people breeding them now! Good luck to everyone who is!

Yeah, it's the equivalent to a glitter dress.

Great pictures, without pics of these tarantulas I'd probably never see this species. X-D
