Don't quote me on this but I think just a few years. I know females can live much longer than the males.

I think it's pretty cool too...
really?that's pretty cool. thanks for sharing. too bad he probably won't live through his next molt. maybe you should mate him...
Sorry, I didn't mean to creep anyone out. I did label it tarantula molting. I just thought I would share because it's not something you see everyday. How many people never thought how a spider/tarantula or any invertebrate for that fact grows? I know that tarantulas are not for everyone. The tarantulas are my hubby's. I have just learned to appreciate them, and are fascinated with them.
Males only live about 5-7 years while the female can live 20+ years. Males are usually smaller then the female as well. As far as breeding goes, we have a mature female, but he may not live thought the mating process. We'll see. I'm not into the breeding thing. He was our first tarantula.
