hi everyone! My fiance and i bought a female p. Striata for our male and after feeding them up, we paired them. Now, at first he started drumming and managed to lure her out and he 'sort of' had a go at mating with her. She was very calm and receptive and looked friendly, but he just couldnt manage it he went about it all wrong, he couldnt get his hooks into her fangs and was more on top of her than underneath, with his palps way to high. I took him out when i went to bed then put him in again just now (last time was 2 days ago) he started again with the drumming but same old story she more or less backed him into a corner this time and when he was fumbling and hesitating she lunged at him but i got a cricket tub lid in front of her, i took him out now and hes in a cricket tub drummin away on and on poor lil guy. She does look huge next to him but they are both mature so i dont know what the problem is. he made a sperm web a week ago too and always was drumming to my formosa. Umm and advice or similar experiences?? Thanks
