Hi everybody just thought i'd post some pics of some breeding attempts with Cyriopagopus Sp "Blue" .I have two adult females and had two spiderlings in the hopes of one of them bieng a male.One of which died of no apperent reason and the other i power feed and kept as warn as posisible and he molted into a nice big male. I had been waiting for what seemed to be fore ever for my females to molt and in the mean time recieved a male from musihuto here on the forum.Unfortunately his male died before the females molted.Iin a bit of desperation thinking my male might not last them molting either I put him in one of the females because I remembered reading somewhere, probably here on the forums that a female being near a male might quicken the molting process within two days of the male being in the females cage she molted. They lived together for over a month Iam sure I didn't keep records so I don,t know exactly how long but it was a long time.I seen them mate once and lots of the female chasing him around and seen him make 1 sperm web but he could have made more I was'ent to observent.Any ways in all the time he was in with this female the other one still had'nt molted so I put his ultimate molt in her cage and about a week later she molted. So i put the male in with her and have heard a lots of commotion coming from her cage so maybe with a bit of luck I could have some slings :)
this is the first female her cage is a good size


and this is the second her cage is smaller a plastic jug about 6 litres
