But then there comes the time when he can't calm her and she extremely aggressive then he leaves.<br />Xmegatronhttp://kingspider.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7294155481861267737.post-5244616059828687712019-11-13T12:32:55.267+00:002019-11-13T12:32:55.267+00:00I meant thats when he kills the other male.I meant thats when he kills the other male.Xmegatronhttp://kingspider.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7294155481861267737.post-30549837001062947682019-11-13T12:30:25.795+00:002019-11-13T12:30:25.795+00:00I bought 2 NOBLE FALSE BLACK WIDOW SPIDERS from a ...I bought 2 NOBLE FALSE BLACK WIDOW SPIDERS from a spider breeder they where 20$ each the seller told me either one or both will grow into adult males now they're getting bigger and one has its color changing I can't wait. I aslo read they don't fight over territory like other male spiders they hold their arms out against the other males arms and test each others strength till one backs down there no killing there but if the other nmale tries to grapple him in a killing position then thats when he kills the others male.Xmegatronhttp://kingspider.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7294155481861267737.post-13044509102532080602012-10-02T10:11:01.114+01:002012-10-02T10:11:01.114+01:00I just found one of these trying to build a web be...I just found one of these trying to build a web between the sink and the faucet handle in the kitchen. I thought at first that it WAS an ant, as it's HUGE compared to all but one of the other spiders of this species that I've found in my house in the last year or so. (we're apparently a good breeding place for the False Widow spiders, as they keep popping up everywhere). I have him safely in a jar right next to my computer as we speak. I'm not sure where I'm going to relocate him to, since winter is rapidly approaching. Can you direct me to any other websites with more information on these nifty little nippers?<br />Cheri L.noreply@blogger.com
