Female OBT #2 Breeding...

Went ahead and paired them a couple days ago, same male, this female came from reptist. All went well with several successful inserts, much quicker then with kitten though....















wondering what the babies will look like because both my females are very brightly colored, and the male is a bit duller.

cool.....

my MM OBT just started making a sperm web

just now

i'll give her a huge dubia

then introduce her to her date

Yes do that, I feed ALL my females before pairing, make sure she finishes her meal before you pair them.

i wish i knew when her last molt was

she hasnt molted in my care and ive had her for awhile
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

what if shes in premolt and the male comes along

will she kill him.....what will happen

You may get lucky and get a sac anyways, they can drop a sac in as little as 18 days.

cool.........I'll give it a shot

i wish i had a decent camera though.....so i could take cool pics

oooooohhhhh fabulous, I have just had 2 female OBTs arrive, and have 2 more coming on wednesday
I didnt realize just how gorgeous they were, the photos really dont do them just do they

cant wait to start breeding them

My adult pair of orange "kittens" will be in my hands this week. I'm about to go pick up the female in a few hours at the PO. Along side her will be a freshly molted cobolt blue female and the final g. rosea female I got for breeding. Should have had this package saturday but lazy po man didn't knock on door of my parents house! just left me the little note......Anyways here it is monday and U best bet that I''ll be there when they open the doors!

Do you know that must be a world wide thing,
I have sat in basically by the front door all day because I was waiting
for a delivery of spiders, I swear to you they dont knock, and just assume that you will
be at work, then they pop a card through the door and scarper....

this then leaves your poor spiders at the P.O for another 24 hours,

Grrrrr really infuriates me, ok rant over now,

I wish you the best of luck with your new additions

I paired up my OBT's last night..........


Its funny how the male runs afterward

They are just plain lazy, what you do is call your PO, ask to speak to the post master and complain they were too lazy to knock!

The mail guy does the same thing here

Got them all safely and WOW I forgot what cobalts looked like in person! Thanks Bliss! Gonna try to get pics up soon.

problem is with that, I have done that in the past, and parcels have then gone missing,
my mail has been stamped on and screwed up,

I just cant risk that with my T's

so glad you got your parcel safe and sound Patrick

Here are some pics of this female, she was due to drop a sac already and she doesn't look gravid to me, sorry for the bad pics, I snapped them from outside her enclosure when she was walking on the side.
