No, actually I think she's in pre-molt. She's refused food for about a month now, so I'm hoping for a molt sometime in the very near future. :)

Amanda whitnessed mating in our communal set up. Some males have matured and are mating with the females... doing nothing, breeding on it's own... I like that! Let's see if some babies will be produced, I really hope so!

Yes, one dead female :wall: :wall: :wall: two other females are mated, but no eggsacs in sight at this time.

Syndicate, that is not uncommon, some breedings are made with siblings sometimes.

Take care

Oi! That's a bummer Martin! Well, I'll keep my fingers crossed for you for the other two. Well, not that that will do much but I'll do it anyway!:p
It would be very nice to see these on your list one day.
