Here's a long and detailed video of the mother having a juicy meal.

Sorry for the sound on the vid, I was just befuddled

Can my Euphrynichus bacillifer regrow its pedipalp? Nothing has changed since 2 moults.

The arm is still missing/ nothing growed back.

She eats and hunts normally.

She is about 2 - 3 years old.

Humidity and temperature are alright and constant.

Has anyone experienced something similar?

This one was big, larger than my hand. I think it's eating another whip, because it seems like only some pedipalps are left. It's prey must not have been that small either.

I just got this whip spider (first photo) at an expo and I was wondering if anyone could tell me the species at this age. It is a very small baby right now. I can try to get clearer photos if needed. From what I see on this subreddit it looks like it's in the Phrynus genus and the seller says she got the parents from an import from Costa Rica. My question is do Phrynus whitei lose their eye spots with age or something similar? The second photo is my adult male Phrynus whitei currently and the third is him when I first got him. He has lost his iconic eye spots or they are not as prominent as they were before. Btw their names are Silly Specimen (first) and Young Baby (second)

Hi everyone! I rarely handle Andromeda, but decided to today because she typically seems to not mind it while I move around her substrate and refill her mister.

Anyway, I noticed a lot of little white spots on her. Is this a sign of molting? She looks very dull to me but no swollen abdomen. I put her down immediately after this and will be leaving her alone until I try to feed her in a few days.

Thanks for any help!

Hey everyone, after a period of fasting, I opened the door to the closet to find Lucy a transparent white with her exoskeleton on the ground! I was waiting for this to happen! This is the first time she’s molted since I got her two months ago… how long do I wait before it’s safe to offer her food? And how long should it take for her to fully harden?

Thanks

Hey yall, I just picked up these 2 amblypygids that were unlabeled. The seller told me was positive they were Central American but if anyone is familiar that can help that would be great! I’ve done research online as I have captive bred Damon diadema already and don’t fully know how to differentiate between species. I’m guess they could be Whitei? But I don’t really know what to look for. Any help would be greatly appreciated
