Beautiful sight for my sore eyes. :cool:
Not sure what exactly you're asking though.

Pals can be one of the more difficult latros to raise beyond your first WCG generation.
While the slings mature they do best if given a couple/few periods of colder temps (below 50F/10C). To successfully mate sac siblings, you'll need to ID males early and slow their growth rate down ...again cold is key along with restrictive feeding.

I was lucky to have the opportunity to carefully pick thru several mature female pallidus web masses from the wild. Snails and isopods made up the majority of prey carcasses ..along with beetle larvae. Proper feeding MAY be more of a factor than what we in the latro hobby want to admit to. ;)
