Thanks alot guys!

Chris, I got five little second instar slings back in october 2006. kept them comunally from the start. After less than nine months I saw the first adult male wandering around, and a few weeks later one of the (still tiny) females made an eggsac, which hatched a month later. From then till now I had 3 other succesfull eggsacs, and I havent seen my biggest female for a few weeks, so I suspect her to have one right now.

IME they are very tolerant towards eachother, however when their enclosure gets too crowded, the numbers will eventually drop, so I suspect they do cannibalize on eachother when the numbers get too high. I haven't actually seen it happen though.
