Excellent!
We have been waiting for a confirmed adult male thaddeus for a while. Kept planning on raising one ourselves, but never got around to it. Seem to remember that these were being placed in pegnia for a while. Don't know if that ever got fixed. You may want to check there for misplaced thaddeus. We'll check when we get home also. Big Thanks!

 
I think ...
Lynette already pulled them all from A. pegnia. I found and moved a few of those from genus. I wasn't looking for spiders when it turned up. My son and his Dad were outside playing with a flying remote controlled robot when my son accidentally landed it on the roof. Dad climbed onto the roof via a second floor window and as he was coming back in he found this one on his leg. :D I was surprised to see it, I haven't personally seen a female yet.
