Cool, congratulations! :3:

I think I saw the tail end of mine mating about a week ago. It looked like how scorpions do it. Does that sound right?

So, it takes about 4 months?

 

[KUJordan]

WOW! That's one of the coolest amblypigid photos I've ever seen! Congratulations on the little ones. Definitely something to document. Very cool...

I count 23 babies in that pic! :clap:

AlexG, are you sure that it is Damon variegatus, not D.diadema?

 

[AlexG]

AlexG, are you sure that it is Damon variegatus, not D.diadema?

If i'm not wrong, D variegatus are smaller than Diadema right? My buddy has a pair of D diadema, and they are bigger than mines, I never did researches to make sure, I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure they are Variegatus!

btw I have 38 babies..pics to come!

Thx
Ciao

Great job! If you are getting rid of any you should have no trouble finding them homes.

very nice! i'd really love to keep some of those one day. what part of florida did you go to? find anything cool?

 

[AlexG]

Thx!

for my trip to Florida, We went to Apalachicola National Park, we found plenty of stuff like cotton mouths, pigmy rattlesnakes, box turtles, black widows, bark scorpions and much more it was a really fun trip can't wait to go again!!!

I wish I could do feild herping like that EVERY SINGLE DAYS of my life

the only thing I HATE are the TICKS!!! ARGNN :evil: :evil:
