Nice stuff Rob, did you have successful copulation?

I will attempt my couple in a few weeks, I will keep my fingers crossed.

Take care

They were succesfull but I think my female will shed sooner than later. I do however have an egg sac from a wild caught female.

BEAUTIFUL t's! Good luck with this project! :)

Awesome blondi's! I'm still new with tarantulas, and have a question: does shedding negatively impact successful breeding?

Sweet Pic, and beautiful animals! Good luck!!

That is an awsome pic. It's looks like a stare down. Do they do any kind of body movements towards the opposite sex?

I haven't noticed nearly as much druming with this species as I have with many others. I can't say it is so for all specimens of this species however.

Lmao... "It's almost in.. almost in.. one's in... THEY'RE BOTH IN!!!" Eheheh... :D

Good luck with 'em! Hope they make lots of nice slings for you!!

Beautiful Ts, good luck with them. :)

Jay76,

When a mated female sheds, she sheds here spermetheca (where she stores the sperm) so she loses the sperm.

You have to start all over again...

That makes a lot of sense, for sure. Thanks!
