Yep she did it. Gary's female finally dropped the sac, it's a big one too. I didn't take any pictures b/c I just want to leave her alone for now, but yea I'm glad it finally happened, she was so damn fat!!

Be prepared for in excess of 400 little slings, possibly 500. That's what my girlie aureostriata gave me. The male was a stout lad, he was, he really took care of business.

Well...I pulled the sac on day 28, no legs at that point, just eggs, around 300 of them. I emptied out the entire sac and have all the eggs in two incubators. It is now day 36 and the first legs are starting to appear. SO far I've counted five. There have been a few bad eggs...actually more like a dozen of them, they turned black and looked kinda dried up. I will post pictures soon.
