0.1 2" Homoeomma orellanai (mature?)
She tore up her molt a bit but I managed to get this picture.
Does her spermatheca looked sclerotized/fully developed?
@VanessaS
I'm pretty sure that is the exact same thing as the one in the link I posted. If you look at the pictures, dimensions, temp range it is the same. I suspect a bunch of companies buy them and resell them "their model".
Maybe there is a difference, but I doubt it.
 
@CitizensOfTheWomb Yes, looked identical to me, but not available in Canada. We have far less selection when it comes to stuff like that and have to rely on the bigger international companies. Of course, it is always more expensive too.
 
@Vanessa @CitizensOfTheWomb Did either of you get one of these incubators? I've been trying to decide if they are worth it. My pet room stays warm all year so it would likely help. I just see a lot of negative review on them.

Hey you, hope you're doing well. I miss seeing you around.
Yes, I did end up buying that Exo-Terra incubator and I used it to cool my Homoeomma chilensis girls over the winter. I had read some bad reviews too, mostly about the fan giving out, but I had no problems with mine at all. I set the temperature, but I also put a manual thermometer inside the door where I could see the temps without opening it up and the manual thermometer always matched the set temps of the unit. I would suggest doing the same, in case something does happen that the unit malfunctions.
I have not used it to heat... only to cool.

Awesome, I've been wanting something to cool down the Ts I've bred since I saw @Austin S. turn a closet into a cool room. I've tried two breeding attempts so far. One produced a sack but I feel I lost it due to the pet room being way too dry that summer. The other paired but she never dropped a sack. I'm thinking it's because she never got cooled down for a "winter" season. About 8 months later she molted with no sack.

My Homoeomma orellanai had a good pairing to a fresh male and is looking promising. With the heat of summer coming on I figured it would be a good time to pick one up if I was going to give it a try.

What temp did you cool your girls to?

Thanks in advance for the help.
