Good luck!

I hear these guys are on the easier side of breeding. Also, I believe they lay a decent sized sac.

I have only had one. He was 1/4 inch. I got him as a freebie from swift. He had made an elaborate burrow. I loved it. He was the most entertaining. It was too cute to see a little sling fill his little "arms" with dirt and bring it out to the top.
He even killed a cricket that was a little larger than he was. He grabbed it and turned it around. He tried to pull it out to the edge of his burrow. He struggled for a little while and couldnt move it far. So he just ate it where it was.
He stopped eatine after 2 weeks. I assumed a molt. After 2 weeks, I found him dead. :( Still have no idea what happened. I will get another one day.

The mating is the easiest part, getting a fertile eggsack and get it hatched are somewhat trickier.
