If only humans were this social, it would be a better community, or world.

I want to get a colony of these...How much are they for a spider colony of 20? How about a social spider colony of 50?

@MegaRobloxian I got these from Germany and they were quite expensive in my opinion. 10euros one spider, or something like that.

Funnily enough i have just got a colony of around 50. I've been reading everything i can see about their care and apart from keeping them extremely well ventilated i couldnt find much else. Unfortunately it seems hardy anyone has bred them, they get sacks but none hatching. Got to agree though they are amazing to watch, like a mini pack of lions :D

@dEsSiCaTa True, they are so new around the "market" that it's hard to find care info. I think people are keeping them in too low temperatures. I know one person who said he has succeeded breeding this species. He said pregnant females should be kept around 25-30C. That's what I was thinking too, because they live in a hot & dry habitat. Let's see what happens with our colony's! Keep us posted ;-)
