Hey guys.
Last week, I gave mating my P.imperators a go. First time there was no response, but the second time they actually mated. This is the problem. The male had laid down his sperm packet, except the female got fed up an abandoned the whole thing. I had a thought, and I wanted to know, can the males lay down more than one packet per mating?
After several tries later, nothing. The female just avoids him and occasionally shoves him aside. I looked closer one night and I noticed she was plumper than usual, her platings were indeed parting, much like a gravid specimen. So I grabbed my camera and took these 3 photos. I need you guys to determine whether or not she is gravid. I have a feeling she might be, but I'd rather consult people of higher knowledge and experience. Thanks a lot.
