gravid solifugid?

[Paladin]

checked on my bug this morning and its abdomen is mostly transparent so i can see what appears to be a bunch of eggs. what are my chances at these being fertile?

Hey,... that'll be some great news,.... i've never heard about breeding solifugae congrats

How long have you had it in your collection?

 

[Paladin]

three weeks or so

If it was wild caught the chances are fairly good that the eggs may be fertile.

Other than that I can't be too much help. I have seen a gravid solifugid once, but it died soon after it was received.

Good luck!
