Here's one you don't see every day. I've got three females and a finally mature male of S. rubronitens. Last year I got two rubronitens sacks but both proved infertile.
This was done in 75 F with low lighting at night. Pictures with flash taken constantly. Breeding couldn't have been easier, male walked in, multiple insertions, then walked back into his own cage. Literally, one of my easiest pairings ever.
Now the pictures:
All the great photos are thanks to Jenna D. (JCola).
Close up of mature male, not blond as originally predicted.
The approach:
Male goes for the gold:
(I took this next one...different angle)
You can see the female doing her standard after mating stance in the backround. The male literally walked right back into his own cage.
One female down.....two to go. I'm going to try the same thing I did last year to get them to make eggsacs, hopefully this time it'll work out!
