    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Our first bumblebees!!

Got our 07' spider female back in march of last year... she was only 500g's but we got her up to size and she gave us 4 fertile eggs after pairing her several times with my pastel male.

I was definitely hoping we would get atleast the "1 in 4"... but it seems the odds gods wanted to bless us!

1 spider
2 bees!!
1 normal

-Sorry for the crappy pics and poor lighting... I'll take some better pics with a better camera in the next couple days or so! Can't wait t'ill they are all out!

Thanks for looking and best of luck to everyone still waiting on eggs or for eggs to hatch! :D

Still got another clutch cooking and a albino x het albino clutch to be laid which brings us to a mighty 5 clutches this year! LOL... :rofl:

Congrats steve. Awesome odds there:thumbsup:
Click to expand...

Thanks Mark! We sure are excited! I was pretty optimistic about hatching 2 bees before eggs were even laid... I knew even if we got only 1 we would be happy but 2 just always sounded better so I just kinda hoped for 2!! LOL

I'm going to hope for atleast 3 or 4 albino's out of this upcoming albino x het albino clutch... see if maybe "hoping" works in my favor for me again... :rofl:
