AWSOME !!!! i'm happy for you !!! congratz
hopefully you'll get a full HATCH :}


this just can't be a coincedence,... now can it ?
i hear from all different pede-keepers one of them pedes is around eggs this time of year,.... maybe the months may-june are scolo-egglaying days !!!

(now that i think of it,... i only heard it from European keepers,... no Americans with pede-eggs :? ?) so is it seasonable ?

Hi John,

Good stuff. I've got to ask the same questions as i asked in your other egg laying thread.... how big is it, how long have you had it for (and what size did you get it), and has it molted since you had it? I presume it hasn't had any contact with other morsitans since it's ben in your care?
The more we get to know about the breeding behaviour of these creatures, the better chance we have of actually breeding them on purpose! I hope all goes well with this one.

Dan.
