[QUOTE="Tortoise Tom, post: 157852, member: 27883"] Put them together a few times weeks ago and never saw any action. Someone here suggested leaving the male with her overnight, so I did. Came back in the morning and he was still alive and well, so I put him back in his own enclosure. He's still eating like a champ to this day. A few days later, she went underground and webbed herself in. I tried every angle to look in and see what she was doing, but the whole damn enclosure is completely webbed over. I kept the water bowl filled and figured she'd come back out when she was ready. Today was feeding day, and it looks like she was ready to come back out... with about a hundred new babies. [ATTACH=full]40067[/ATTACH] I haven't got them all separated out yet, but I'll count them when I finish that task later tonight. I put mom in a big deli cup and these little babies are surprisingly adept at avoiding capture. I found the sac. She was buried deep and way down in the middle of everything. In hindsight I would have wrecked everything if I had gone looking for her. I wondered what was going on in there, but I'm glad I left her alone now. [ATTACH=full]40068[/ATTACH] Lots of little exoskeletons in the webbing around the empty sac: [ATTACH=full]40069[/ATTACH] I have 3 dozen of these AMAC boxes, and I think the rest are going to have to go into whatever other little vials and deli cups I have around. So much fun! [ATTACH=full]40070[/ATTACH] I'll get a better close up later, but these things are so gorgeous! [ATTACH=full]40071[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
