That'd be awesome, keep us updated.Look to be the first to breed in the states.
Will do along side with "Joe Rossi"That'd be awesome, keep us updated.![]()
So you're the mystery man that he mentioned haha.I just got 3 T. Seladonia slings, and 2 Phamphobetus. Solaris awesome Ts!
Yes that's me, I've been apart of breeding projects for years!So you're the mystery man that he mentioned haha.
If the slings are affordable of course. Right now they are too high priced for most people, esp for a species we know very little about. I hope the owners can keep them alive, let alone breed them. If they turn out to be another P met, it may take a while to figure out how to breed them.Good luck with your investments guys, would be incredible to have sustained captive breeding of these guys here in the states.![]()
What's unique about breeding P. metallica? Eh, I don't think keeping them alive is going to turn out to be difficult or require any special circumstances. It is just another T, after all they are all pretty darn similar in care.If the slings are affordable of course.

Hey Joe,Thus far they have thrived and survived a few molt's and have been doing very well. Sure slings are always a risk and if that risk is not for you pass and let those that are willing to take the risk and be the first to have this beautiful specie give it a go.
They weren't easy to crack. Subtle nuances, that my friend figured out, as he was the first in the USA to breed them. He knows, not I, I just remember the gist of the convo. There is information on this board about it.What's unique about breeding P. metallica?
You're a bit of a comedian, aren't you?When y'all breed them let's skip the part where we wait for the price to come down, just start selling them at $40 a piece.
I made my comment comedic but it is more of me just being hopefulYou're a bit of a comedian, aren't you?
I hope you are right, but too hopeful I think. We haven't seen that happen as the original owners always want to get back the money they put into the original stock (logical), and as with most small Ts, their sac sizes are small. The sacs often range from 20-60 for a variety of small species. I expect this one to be no exception.I made my comment comedic but it is more of me just being hopeful
