Well both of my females have molted, the massive girl "Zila" will not be ready for 1 1/2 months but my other female "Sammy" is ready!!! She is about 1 moth and 3 weeks into her molt cycle, I was going to wait until she was 2 months but decided to mate her now. This is the female with the odd looking spot on her abdomen....but she is kicking the deformed spot off and I believe it is just a piece of molt or tangled hair and she is fine. Below is her mating video!!

Enjoy!!!

Get it buuuuuuudy!!! That's right!

Rob how did he break his leg anyway? You told me about the front one but the back one is in question.

Great video, good stuff! I just hope my guy doesn't have circling sperm which may be the reason why they haven't been pregnant lol.

His back two legs are broke...one the female got a while back and the other he broke taking a fall.
They were both gravid but too far into their molt cycles and they molted out...Shouldn't be a concern this time!! LOL

Hello my friend.... Ogra molted on 12-15-08 and still hasn't come out of her hide..:wall:
Sweetie matured just shortly before that. Any advice on when she'll be ready for mating? I don't know anyone as qualified to answer as you are. ;)
How long does it usually take for a MM to produce a sperm web? Sweetie has been lazy and hasn't done so, just yet. He's eating like a horse, though. {D

I'd wait about a month and a half to two months after her molt (I'm doing Zilla after a month and a half - person preference). Feed her very well before mating.
The mature male can take up to two months to make a sperm web...but I had a male do it about 3 weeks to a month after maturing. It all depends on the individual.
Be sure to NOT clean any webbing in the female's enclosure...the MM will need that to locate her and she'll need it to know he's coming to visit!!

Let me know if you have any other questions. Rob

Rob, it's good to hear she kicked the spot off, and it wasn't any kind of deformity. Dude, when she pops, put me on the list for some slings ;)
