Birth of a Tarantula
- Thread starter patrick
- Start date
We had a gathering of our local tarantula club at my home today. One of the guys opened up a couple of egg sacks. The first one had about 75 eggs in the sac and the second one had just a few more.
It's from a tarantula called Nhandu chromatus and they get quite large as adults, good six inches with a big body. They have tiny babies and a whole lot of them. Here's a photo of the eggs after they were removed from the sac.
I'm figuring between 1200 and 1400. Utterly amazed me. The friend is into taking pictures so I know he'll document the growing process. If anyone is interested I'll borrow some of them and post them here for every one to see them. Here we go again.
