Birth and Death in the Collection



 
A Dark Wolf Spider (Hogna huelo) I received as a freebee from my wholesaler produced an eggsack and hatched into about a million babies.  Here she is with the babies on her back, munching on a cricket.
 
 
Sadly, my favorite true spider in collection has passed away.  I got this Giant Huntsman Spider (Heteropoda venatoria) back in October on 2016 and she was pretty much adult size then.  Unfortunately, I never took any pictures or videos of her while she was alive.
