Mating Vietnamese Tigers

I have had a female for a while and she is mature. TOday at the store I found a mature male. He is way smaller than she is and much lighter in color but the owner said he has spun a sperm web and loaded his palps so I am going to attempt a mating. Any tips or advice? Anything will help.

Hi and what I did with my T.blondis was make sure they were well fed. Put him in the cage opposite of where she was at, and he did his little drumming and then went for it. If you want to save the male make sure you have something with you to separate them if needed and don't take your eyes off of them.
Best of luck to you:D

What I have done is I dimmed the lights. The male is in a deli cup on one side of her house. THe lid is off and I am just letting them do their thing. If anything badhappens I will be there to separate them.

Isnt it the webbing which contains the pheremones in which the male spider gets hot and bothered over?

I have heard people having increased success by placing the female into the males cage.
