so my mm genic still hasnt made a sperm web and keeps insisting he wants to mate. He never moves from the spot he is sat in now, never eats, drinks etc. I have paired him about 4 times and he has inserted every time, but afterwards when he goes back into his own enclosure he just sits in the same spot and doesnt make a sperm web. The female starts drumming really loudly the next day and he always responds too, but i give it a few days then pair them again with the same result. Its really narked me why he isnt making sperm webs (and he isnt concealing the evidence) i check thoroughly every time hes in with the female and no web whatsoever. What is happening? Why does he want to mate when he hasnt reloaded?! He is getting proper insertions too, lifting her near vertically in a vise grip and his embolus stays prominent after the pairing. I know i must sound like a broken record now, but is there anyone who can shed some light on the problem please? He has been mature for a month and never made a sperm web. Is he infertile? Anyone else have/had similar concern? Thanks
