That would be a good idea. I know when I try breeding in the future, I will be making sure my female is well fed. That's just one way of helping cut down the chances of the female attacking the male instead of mating with him.

What species? Some LOVE to breed and need little or no provisions.

I think Avic Man was referring to feeding her in one shot until she won't eat anymore. For example, giving her like 10 crickets in one sitting, not feeding her every day until she stops.

We're going to be breeding our B. albos in a couple weeks and before we introduce them we're going to feed our female pretty heavily for the few days leading up to their date.

Yes, that's what I meant.

I have fed my female Nhandu coloratovillosus a lot of roaches till she cannot eat anymore. She refused the roaches for a week. after a week and 3 days, she began eating again.
If your T doesnt eat, it could mean that she is just full. It does not necessarily mean premolt. Hope this info helps
