Aphonopelma anax Mating

Grainy but informative video showing a mating between two tarantulas, including preliminary "drumming". In the portion where they meet, the male is at the top of the screen.

Thanks for the comment. He ended up getting a number of chances and it all ended up with an egg sack that yielded 1,036 babies :)

I have 3 big skittish slings at the moment and i would be happy if you could post a few more videos of your A. anax.

1,036 babies! Way to be productive! Good video, thanks for posting it.

This species seems surprisingly overlooked in the trade. There are very few pictures of them or resources.  I've been thinking of getting one for some time, though.

Was pretty exciting. But to my it seems that he wanted more... Is the first time that i see something like that.

Many Thaks :)
