These were just dots back in July when I got them. They are about 1/2" now. They grow quick if you let them. ;)

Yeah, that's what I figured Philth lol. It just seems weird to call it a juvenile lol. I can't wait till they are adults, I definitely want more!

Great photo! Not sure how you pulled it off. Mine is lightning fast and never comes out of her funnel. Best "webber" that I own! This is an awesome species. Thanks for posting.

I got two as freebies a while back. They're about 1/5" now. Very interesting species.

The trick is to pull them out of their enclosure. :)

I like how they try to camouflage the sac with debris. Well done man, if I remember right it should hatch in about 15 days or so depending on the temps.

Thanks Tom, the added substrate and moss is a nice touch.

The female double clutched over the weekend and the first sac hatched last night.

I'll try and take some time and try for some decent Raynox shots of these microdots soon. :)

Every time I see a hatched clutch like that I get this deranged imagining of a bunch of kids shrilly squealing 'IT'S PARTY TIME!'. Lovely spider.
