The mother that had my false Ts may be in a death curl, i thought she was supposed to open the den. Should i wait and see or open the den so her spawn can roam free?
Well, I don’t know much about breeding, but I know mamma T, will remain with the brood until she feels they are big enough, then she will open the cocoon and let them be free. I recommend opening it up before then, that way your not chasing slings everywhere! Get mom out of the way, use a large fan bristle brush to guide her out of the nest and put her in a separate container so you can collect the slings without getting bit! Mom will be aggressive, tread carefully and use LONG tweezers to tear into the web. Good luck!
@HiramSpider I'm sorry I must have missed this when you posted it. I don't have any real experience of breeding which is probably why I didn't answer.
What was the outcome? Did the little ones make it out and did mum survive?
