Hi, this is my first post on here so I apologize in advance if I've posted in a wrong catagory, I'm still finding it all a little daunting so bear with me ;-)
I'm new to tarantula breeding, i've recently paired my Grammostola Pulchripes which was quite straight forward and I'm awaiting the results, and i've been pairing my Greenbottle Blue tarantulas in the last 4 weeks. So far i've paired them 5 times, he's had a lucky escape everytime, 3 out of 5 of those pairings i've witnessed definite insertions including the last time I paired them - very brief, but insertions none the less before she's pounced on him, the other 2 times I'm not so sure. What is the next step now? Should I keep trying them until he loses interest or she finally gets him, or should I take a chance on those 3 insertions and concentrate my efforts now on getting her to lay? I've heard many times they are tricky to breed so I want to do the best I can to succeed. I welcome all advice, thank you
