Cyriopagopus Longipes pairings! Two females in one evening… both successful! This is one of them

That’s AWESOME! How did it work out? Any information or recommendations you can give me for future pairing?

It worked out well! With my Cyriopags I keep them in moist soil (not damp or wet) - even on the dryer side with an open water dish to provide humidity!

I feed the female a hornworm or a large gut-loaded female dubia a couple of days prior to introduction. I stand by with a soft paintbrush with a long handle in case I need to rescue the male. But the female was receptive and they paired successfully three times and the egg sac was a 60 count! I left the female alone taping a piece of black construction paper over her den where I could see through the enclosure glass. That way I can just lift up the flap instead of causing too many vibrations
